naturally, goldfish are from china, and lived in rivers and large lakes or ponds.
their natural habitat is anything that reflects these environments, so that means:
- deep water
- falled logs
- grass and underwater plants
- rocks
- slow moving water
to replicate this in tank in captivity, you will need:
- a tank
- drift wood or somewhere for the fish to hide, such a a decoration barrel or castle
- potted live plants, or silk artificial ones (not plastic, please!)
- and gravel.
- a filter which moves the surface of the water via the outlet

How do black moors reproduce?
Spring time is the breeding season for goldfish. During this time female goldfish will put on weight, and male goldfish will develop breeding tubercles (white dots on the head and gills). Goldfish may chase each other around the habitat in an effort to find a mate. When a male and female goldfish choose a mate the female will release her eggs onto the breeding ground (such as an aquatic plant, or breeding mop). The male goldfish will then release a cloud of Milt (sperm). The milt thus fertilizes the eggs, and goldfish fry begin to form within the eggs. The goldfish eggs will continue to develop for several days until they eventually hatch into fry. The fry will then grow into fully developed goldfish overtime. These goldfish will eventually reproduce, and thus continue the life cycle.
