Shubunkin

Carassius auratus

The shubunkin as with all goldfish is originally from China but is now sold world-wide. The shubunkin is a hardy fish, and has a white gold and blue/black patterned colour.

The ideal habitat for the shubunkin is a pond of at least 140 gallons, roughly 1metre x 1.2metres x 0.5 metres with a gravel substrate, rocks, and hearty plants. They like to eat the roots of plants and will dig to get to them, so provide large rocks around the base of the plants to protect them. Adequate filtration should be provided in order to maintain proper water conditions.

shubunkin should be fed a quality pellet or flake food that has no more than 30% protein.

Before adding your new fish to your pond, we highly recommend quarantining them for two weeks. This will allow you to observe and condition the new fish before introducing them into the display pond
