A black moor and a comet goldfish can readily mate together. I have successfully bred them myself in a 60litre tank. However if you are expecting fancy goldfish you may be disappointed. The genes for the black moor are recessive, which means the majority of your fish will be normal goldfish. Most of my youngsters have not yet changed colour yet so I am still waiting to see whether they will all be gold, or whether I will get some black colouration. good luck!!

Long answer: Because the black moor is a fancy double tailed variety of goldfish, they are slow and clumsy and will not be able to compete as well for food against a single tail speedy comet. They CAN be housed together, but because of the black moor's special needs it isn't recommended.

∙ 13y agoYes and No, depending on how many comet goldfish you are planning to have.Telescope goldfish eyes cause them to have poor vision so they are not a good competitor for food, comet goldfish will scarf up all the food before your Calico gets a nibble. These fish will thrive best housed with the other similarly handicapped fish including the Black Moor and the less hardy Bubble Eye Goldfish Lionhead Goldfish, and Celestial Goldfish.
