This isn't my Goldie but I was at my LFS yesterday and saw this beauty

Apparently it had outgrown the previous owners tank so they had to rehome him along with four others. The store was having a hard time selling it so she was letting them go for 2.99 each.

There's my 3. The oranda's name is Catfish. Moor is Goldfish. And the calico fantail is Crawfish. My 3 year old named them.

Love the oranda! I have a mini one right now! He's just getting his headgrowth!:)

Mine is about 3 1/2 inches not including the tail. Or about 10 cm. I wish he's hurry up and grow. I've had it for maybe 6 months or so. I reckon he's about a year old. Maybe 1.5. I'm anxious for him to be 6-8 inches long.

Mines about an inch without tail.

My little goldfish with racing stripes, these are the pictures of him i took at the store. I think he's an oranda? Or maybe just a fantail. It doesnt matter to me :)

He's in a 50 gallon tank with a white/orange oranda and a calico fantail. They're a little bigger than him, maybe 2 inches without tails.

Wow that's an amazing color.
 
My big, bold, beautiful and sweet Oranda...Stachie. He loves to have his belly rubbed and to lay in the palm of my hand. I'd kiss him if I could, I love him so much it's rifishulous!!!

Wow he's amazing how old is he.
 
:thanks: I've had him since he was about 1 1/2" long, coming up on four years now. I had a situation when he was about a year old where I had to change his water basically every night for about a month. He grew so much it was crazy!! He has the most friendly "fishonality" you could imagine :)
