My Red Oranda Goldfish has a Napoleon Complex! He is a tiny little fish compared to the massive Calico Ryukin and he has the audacity to nip at his fins!

Thoughts?

cant help, but loling at how hard the small one has to swim to keep up XD

Awwwww....he's soooo small and the others soooo big lol. With a tail like that floating around it must be really tempting to see if it tastes nice

maybe male and female?

LOL brat! It's like a nippy, yippy Chihuahua !

The big Calico Ryukin is definitely a male as I saw his nuptial tubercles while he was harassing one of my Orandas who is also smaller than him. This was 2 months ago.

so the little one is homosexual? Or in the show me your and I'll sow you mine phase.


2 males will harass each other esp if one is reaching breeding age.

Damn guys, quit posting stuff about all these beautiful goldfish!! I really, really, really want a black moor, or 3 or 4 or 5. LoL. After detesting gold fish for so long, I have been shown how wrong I was. However, with the 60 still set up, and the 90 as a WIP, not including the 2 5.5s, the 10 gallon and the 36 gallon, I think if I asked Denzil for another tank he'd kill me.

HOWEVER!! I have gotten him on board! We went to a friend's house and saw a 450 gallon reef tank with corals and tangs, and Denzil is trying to figure out how to make space for a frag tank LOL. But, it seems like we may cash out on his stock options at his job, and that will give us more than enough money for a down payment on a home. Maybe one day I can have a HUGE tank with 3-4 black moors in there, with automatic water changers, planted, etc etc. Hey, a girl can dream right

you can dream about the plants... so can the GF... they love to eat them
