Introduction: The Calico Fantail (Carassius auratus), a variant of the goldfish, is a delightful and eye-catching addition to any freshwater aquarium. Its striking calico coloration and elegant flowing tail make it a captivating choice for fish enthusiasts.
Scientific Name: Carassius auratus
Water Quality:
Feeding: The Calico Fantail is an omnivorous fish and enjoys a varied diet. They readily accept flake or pellet foods specially formulated for goldfish, as well as frozen or live foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp.
Tank Mates: The Calico Fantail is generally peaceful and can coexist with other peaceful community fish. Avoid pairing them with aggressive or fin-nipping species.
Substrates and Tank Decorations: Provide a well-planted aquarium with plenty of open swimming space. Use a fine gravel or sand substrate to prevent damage to their delicate fins.
Suitable Plants: Hardy aquatic plants like Java Fern, Anubias, and Hornwort can be great additions to the aquarium. Ensure that the plants are securely anchored to prevent uprooting.
Sexing: Sexing Calico Fantails can be challenging, but during breeding season, males may have tiny white tubercles on their gill covers and pectoral fins.
Breeding: Breeding Calico Fantails is possible in a well-maintained aquarium with suitable conditions. They are egg layers, and the parents may consume the eggs if not separated.
Maximum Size and Longevity: The Calico Fantail can grow up to 6 inches (15 cm) in length and has an average lifespan of 10 to 15 years with proper care.
General Information: The Calico Fantail is a peaceful and social fish that enjoys the company of its kind. Regular water changes and a balanced diet are essential to keep them healthy and vibrant.
A Fun Fact: Calico Fantails come in a range of colors and patterns, making each individual unique and adding a beautiful mosaic-like display to your aquarium.
