DieselPlower 2,123 Posted June 21, 2015 It doesn't look like a koi or a shubunkin to me. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fantailfan1 26,742 Posted June 21, 2015 Looks like a common or a comet to me. It's a little hard to see the tail. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoldenSpoiledRotten 6,786 Posted June 21, 2015 That is a common goldfish, also referred to as a Hibuna. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shakaho 6,312 Posted June 21, 2015 I can't tell if it is metallic or nacreous. Does it have some scales that sparkle like sequins? (I think I saw one.) If so, it is nacreous and you can call it a sakura shubunkin. Otherwise it is metallic and a comet. Observe the comet and common tails here. The tail of a hibuna has rounded lobes. This fish has a widely forked tail with pointed lobes. The color is beautiful. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoldenSpoiledRotten 6,786 Posted June 21, 2015 Sharon, I don't see the pointed lobes. This picture here shows pretty round lobes, and what looks like a not very deep fork: http://www.Not Allowed/fishpicture/data/500/medium/20150609_202644ok.jpg?1259 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goldfishfanforever 913 Posted June 21, 2015 I agree with Sharon it looks like a comet but the picture angles make it difficult to tell if it is or if it is a common 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shakaho 6,312 Posted June 21, 2015 See pages 11 and 15 here to see tail of a common. Then look at the last picture the OP posted. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
