Goldfish usually react positively to having a light source, however it is unhealthy to leave your fish tank illuminated constantly and the light also encourages algae to grow rapidly. Eight to twelve hours a day is sufficient for a happy goldfish.

If you kept a goldfish in the dark it will turn white?

So it has been reported. I guess you or I would get pale and may even suffer both psychologically and physically from light deprivation if we were kept permanently in the dark.

How do goldfish react to being placed directly under a lamp?

If a goldfish is kept in the dark it will appear lighter in the morning, So if left in the dark for a long period of time, a goldfish will turn almost white.
