Exhibiting bright orange and white colors, these easy to care for fish will happily coexist in the same features as the majestic koi, swimming around the larger fish in dazzling schools. However unlike koi, nearly every feature is right for goldfish. They will happily live in the smallest ponds with minimal care, bringing a splash of color to a courtyard or back patio near you.
