They don't carry their babies and may be best to separate them as they might be eaten. The eggs are laid, fertalised and eventually they hatch. As eggs they will stick to objects in the tank, Make sure you have some weeds int he tank. it makes it easy to simply pull the weed out of the tank and place it in another for safe hatching!
Method 1
Spawning mop tips!
If you want your spawning mop to float around in the aquarium, tie it to a piece of cork.
yes the the female can have a baby in a small tank
Fish lay eggs, they don't carry babies.
Goldfish are egg laying fish, and unless there is a male in the tank to chase the female and convince her to release eggs, you may not know that she is either female, or even has eggs to release.
Dont worry about female or male, they may have babies but it does not effect them dying! Just leave them where they are act as normal, by cleaning out the tank! and feeding them.
You should see that the female goldfish appears fatter than usual due to the eggs she is carrying. The male will have white spots on his front fins and gill covers and will pay the female a lot of attention chasing her around the tank or pond. when the the goldfish have babies?
Yes, goldfish are very messy. Goldfish need 10 gallons per fish, you actually need a 20 gallon tank or about a 70 liter tank for 2 goldfish. But the small tank will do while they are small, you will need to eventually get a larger tank.
Goldfish are not livebearers so they are never truly pregnant. If you think your goldfish is pregnant than she is just getting ready to spawn by becoming full of eggs. Unless there is a male goldfish present the eggs will be unfertilized and will not hatch into baby goldfish fry. Your female goldfish will soon lay her eggs, and if no further action is taken, she will then eat them. As for the small tank, I would really recommend moving her into a bigger one.
If the goldfish is a fancy variety, it can live alone in a 20 gallon tank. Goldfish do not belong in tanks any smaller than this as they grow very large

Goldfish lay eggs. These eggs attach to objects in the tank or pond, like leaves. They stay there until the goldfish fry hatch.
Well it'll help if it has water in the tank?
Of course!
Since an oranda is a type of goldfish, they will be fine together
Small or Big it should be kept in a huge tank with Filter and Oxygen 10 gallons per Goldfish At least
