GORGEOUS!!
What kind of goldfish are the ones in the last couple pictures? I've seen them online before and always wanted one, but can never remember the name

Thanks so much. The ones without dorsal fins are called ranchu, the ones with the brainy head are orandas, and the little guy is a butterfly.

Stunning fish. I am not a big fan of goldfish but I am impressed.

Thank you! I didn't think I was either. I almost went discus, but wanted something 'easier'. Well these couldn't be any further from easy. Where common or comet goldfish may be hardy, these guys are far from it. I think it's because they tweak them so much trying to get certain traits. They have turned out to be enjoyable though, due to their personalities. This used to be our reef tank. Long story but it had gotten far away from the beauty it once was. It was also very expensive. I promised hubby we could go freshwater, and I could make something beautiful.

These are certainly beautiful fish. I used to get ranchu and lion head confused.

Aggh..I want a new camera sooo bad! It's just an old Canon G5
Thank you!
Omg! They have FACES!!!!!! So beautiful and unique!!!!! The grayish-brownish one's face resembles one of a certain parrot. Your tank is really enviable despite of the maintenance you said it requires. I would love to be able to look at those beautiful "faces" every day

Hello, thanks for the nice compliments. The lighting kind of skews her color a bit, the one you are calling brown is actually called lavender/purple. She reminds me of Thomas the train. I have yet to think of a name for her.

My tank became very dirty so I tore it all down the other night and replaced the artificial plants with live, scrubbed the stones, removed most of the substrate, and added a big piece of driftwood. All of these plants just arrived late today, so not sure how they may end up. I just kind of shoved them in here...they are HUGE!!

Is that Java Fern on the left? If so, it looks more like a Java Tree!
Your fish are stunning.

Thank you. The big one on the left is an amazon sword. The mat in between is java fern.

Took the goldies out, dumped in a bag of new substrate over the sword, smushed down the anubias some, and took out a rock. Replaced goldies...
