I have two ryukins in a 35 gallon tank...the one fish's name is Gobbels because he eats everything and the other goldfish is named Dutchess.

Had them for about a year and I love them. They eat food out of my hand :) Seriously though, don't get them if you do not want to look after them properly. They are really messy!

AGH! People! Mixing goldfish & tropical fish is a big NO NO! Goldfish need different food, different PH & temperature than tropicals! It's like forcing a polar bear to live in Florida! He may survive, but never thrive!

Ryunkins & all other fantails very prone to swim bladder disease. Always soak pellets before feeding, & give frozen, thawed peas & other veggies, to help keep their bunched -up intestinal tract clean.

I just cured a huge Ryunkin that had swim bladder disease for nearly a year! I put her in a 10 gal hospital tank,added Melafix & Pimafix, almost exclusive diet of thawed, frozen peas (organic, squeeze them out of their hulls) & frozen Emerald Entree, aquarium salt in tank, & lot's of partial water changes.She is finally swimming right after 10 mos.!!

In the pic the first one is amazing

I added two ryunkin's to my pond. My shubunkin & sarosa have really been chasing the one badly. Will they interbreed?

can ryukins live in my pond through cold weather with my koi??

i a large koi pond with about 15 medium size koi and 2 about 20 inches.
I have been offered four large gold fish and I think they are Ry
can they stay outdoors though out the winter?

I have a common goldfish and was wondering if I could add a Shubunkin, Comet, Fantail, Veiltail, and Ryunkin Goldfish. Is this a bad mix?

my gold and white ryunkin is getting black specs on parts of his body. i've checked him and there is no fungus on him it looks like its under his skin. he is in a twenty gallon tank with a black moor. the water and temp is perfect is this normal for him?

hey sheena u should only feed ur fish a pinch twice a day.

i have 2 ryukin and 1 beta female and 1 janitor fish..what id thier compatible to them???

help!!!

@chooky chu

my uncle is always forgetting to turn off the hose when he refills his pond causing the fish to jump out sometimes... we were told there wasn't enough oxygen in the water so maybe its the same case with your goldfish?

I think my fish is afraid of water. He kept trying to get out of the tank. What is wrong?

i just got 2 ryukins yesterday.they are sooo adorable.and they're always hungry.is that normal?what if i overfeed them?they always look so hungry.which food is better for them anyway?the flakes or the pellets?i feed them flakes by the way. :D

Hey i just bought 3 fancy golfish i am a bit worried that my tank is to small on some websites it says that they can grow to size of a tennis ball Help!!??

gOT TWO RYUKINS...
THEY EAT A LOT,,, i LOVE TO SEE THEM EATING...
adorable indeed...
THEY ARE COMBINED WITH TIGER BARB AND HAMMERHEAd/// i AM ALWAYS AMUSED TO THEIR COMMUNITY! PERFECT!

I just got one, love it, very pretty, but has one sticky out eye which has been damaged, may lose it yet, it'll still be the prettiest fish in my tank if it does though.

I just got a ryukin goldfish.. I love him!! His name is Freddy. I never liked fish, until the day I visited my sister and she got herself a fish tank. She was so excited about it she wanted to get me one as well. She set me one up the next day and took me out to buy whatever fish I wanted. Out of all the fish I fell in love with these goldfish, they have such beautiful tails! Freddy is now my new love, he just keeps me so entertained with his little personality. He's deffinatly made me into a fish lover :D

I just got two Ryukin and they are amazing!! I love them so much. They get along really well with my smaller comet goldfish. :)

It took me a while, but I finally discovered my goldfish is a ryukin. When it was purchased it was a "common calico". But if it was under the name of Ryukin it probably would have cost a whole lot more. He's been hardy, survived even though every other fish that's been in the tank has died. But I noticed Walmart closed down all their fish tanks within a week after. So who knows.
He's a darker calico, more blackish with orange and reds in him. Now he lives with a hypostomus plecostomus and 2 AFDs.

These are truly the cutest little fish I have ever seen, with the little fat tummys, so cute. Would love to have a tank full of them.

these are very pretty... although i do preder commets and commons. =] beautiful colors

WOOO RYUKINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Calico Ryukins are the coolest kinds of them all!
