The males chase the females usually early in the morning and they begin bashing her side and nudging her then she releases her eggs usually between 100 and 1000. They are fertilised immidiately by the males who release there milt as soon as eggs are laid. I know this from experience as i breed fantail goldfish, they also eat there eggs once laid so remove the eggs immidately, the males do not go "in search off eggs".
