Giant Calico Ryukin Grade AA Goldfish Carassius Auratus

Overview: The Ryukin Goldfish is a beautiful and distinctive variety of goldfish with a prominent humpback and a deep, compressed body. Their flowing fins and varied color patterns make them a popular choice for aquarium enthusiasts. Typically reaching a size of 6-8 inches, Ryukins are known for their hardiness and playful demeanor.

Origin: Originally from China, Ryukin Goldfish have a rich history dating back centuries. They were later introduced to Japan, where they became highly popular. Today, they are bred worldwide.

Feeding: Ryukins are omnivores and thrive on a varied diet. High-quality goldfish pellets or flakes should form the basis of their diet, supplemented with live, frozen, or freeze-dried foods like bloodworms, brine shrimp, and daphnia. Vegetable matter like blanched spinach or peas is also beneficial. Avoid overfeeding as they are prone to digestive issues.

Tank Mates: Ryukin Goldfish do well with other goldfish varieties, particularly those that are not too fast-swimming or competitive for food. Suitable companions include Orandas, Telescopes, and Fantails. Avoid pairing with aggressive or nippy fish.

Aggression: Ryukins are generally peaceful but can be competitive during feeding. They are better suited to a community of similar, non-aggressive goldfish species.

Experience Level: Suitable for beginners to advanced aquarists, Ryukins are relatively easy to care for, provided their basic needs are met.

Water Parameters:

  • Temperature: 65-75°F (18-24°C)
  • pH: 6.5-7.5
  • Water hardness: 5-19 dGH

Regular water changes and a well-maintained filtration system are crucial to keep their environment clean and healthy.
