bodoba 2,980 Posted December 14, 2011 I looked at one of my suppliers yesterday and they had an orange pompom. I thought that was kinda unique. Really hoping they will have more so I can get one in the pond in the spring. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chrissy_Bee 144 Posted December 14, 2011 I have always adored plain old calico orandas. I got two smallish ones two years ago but sadly they came with a bacterial issue and didn't thrive. I want one that gets nice and big, with cute squishy cheeks and a nice wen. That's all I ask 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bodoba 2,980 Posted December 14, 2011 I like how he went to hide in the bubbles after he got measured. So cute when big goldies forget their big 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShawneeRiver 2,720 Posted December 14, 2011 I saw a very cute bigger calico oranda for you last week at Petsmart. I could ship him to you, Chrissy. He was sooo cute with great color. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cathface 161 Posted December 14, 2011 I would absolutely love a panda anything haha, as long as it stayed a panda! also those tosakins holy mother of all things sacred! they're so beautiful to watch. eggfish are also adorable. I particularly like the fact that they're called eggfish lol. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfsong8 1 Posted December 14, 2011 I would LOVE to have a chocolate pom-pom with orange poms. I saw a nice big one once when I lived in Vegas, but I couldn't afford him (or the tank I would need to keep him!). Ever since I saw him, I have had my eyes out for any other pom-poms. I just love them! Sadly, I have never seen another, and I have been searching for years. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, it'll be a nice Christmas present I'm hoping to get a new fish or two this weekend, maybe I'll luck into a nice calico for myself. I would LOVE to have a chocolate pom-pom with orange poms.

A few years back a lfs here always had them and I was so tempted, but I never did get one. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeana727 952 Posted December 25, 2011 (edited) How about the people who already have their DREAM Goldie (or goldies) post pictures of them! That way we who are still dreaming can see there is hope!!! Edited December 25, 2011 by Jeana727 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rhorizon74 11 Posted December 26, 2011 For me... hard to say. There's a few fish that I'd love to up the variety in my tanks. One of them is a big fat, show quality red and white ryukin, with more red than white. The photo if this one here, I'd love to find one similar to it. Rather more red than more white, but a similar, solid red pattern. I love it! I got your (and my) dream fish (albeit a bit smaller right now.. working on the size). My dream fish are my fishes but at least 3 inches bigger. I know there are a lot of things used to judge quality in shows, but to me what makes goldfishes endearing are the size and the personality. Apart from increasing the size on my fishes i would have loved if we could have Ryukins with veiltails. I understand true veiltails dont have the hump of ryukins (or am i wrong here). If wrong can we have pictures. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RabbiehxGoldfishxLover 2 Posted January 2, 2012 my dream goldfish would be like the crossbreed between a black moor and a veiltail, don't even know if that exists, but if it does i want it! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You mean like this one? http://www.raingarden.us/7929c.JPG http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Syz7gRo18xQ They definitely do exist. I'm not sure where you may be able to find them in Australia. Perhaps some of the Australian members like Stakos & Lionchu can help you out! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goldiekort 1 Posted January 6, 2012 First and foremost I love this thread! I would love to have a much bigger tank if I had extra money to spend- like a 50+ gallon. And I hope and wish my fish will live more than 2 years! Haven't had the best luck in the past. I would definitely add a black butterfly tail to my collection 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
