Regular Member blackteles Posted December 9, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted December 9, 2010 Pom Poms have been heavily crossbred into countless sport varieties. There are Telescopes, Orandas, Dragonheads, Lionheads and many others that have Pom Pom nasal bouquets. These are all generally considered sport varieties, and not separate breeds or Pom Pom variants in and of themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Sakura Posted December 9, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted December 9, 2010 Welcome to Koko's ggtuna! Yep Dennis is right! There are many types of fish that can grow pom poms, they are just over-grown nasal flaps basically. I happen to have a veiltail telescope who has little pom pom things going on. I think it adds to her charm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member number20121 Posted December 9, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted December 9, 2010 Hello and welcome to Koko's! It doesn't even necessarily have to be "real pom poms". My Oranda Spicey and Lionhead Banana both have larger nostrial flaps than the other fish. Not really pom pom size, but noticable 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporter amoonklein Posted December 10, 2010 Supporter Share Posted December 10, 2010 Hi ggtuna and My blue oranda has them and I think they make him look super cute As for posting pictures, you can always upload them to a third party website like Photobucket and then copy and paste the image code here We'd love to see your pics! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
