Goldfish do not have a breeding season. They can breed whenever the water is warm enough. In an open pond, this would be in the Spring and Summer months. In an indoor aquarium this can be year-round.
Thank you very much for your answer!!
Goldfish of both sexes can be happily put together usually without any problems. During the breeding season male fish may chase the female but in general they are very peaceful.
Year round, but especially in Spring for pond goldfish.
Probably, but usually the comet goldfish will get all the food and/or the other goldfish will become miserable. This has happened to me before and I do not recommend putting them in the same tanks. Try putting the fancy and comet godlfish seperate!
== == Sexing Goldfish outside of the breeding season is extremely difficult. In the breeding season males develop small white pimples (breeding tubercles) on their gill covers and along the edge of their front fins (pectoral fins). Females are generally more rounded and deeper in body shape as they fill with roe (eggs) and have a larger vent before the anal fin.
Spawning is breeding goldfish
Firstly, sexing young and juvenile goldfish is virtually impossible, you have to wait until the fish reach breeding age (usually one year old). Secondly, sexing adult goldfish out of the breeding season is difficult, because the sexually distinguishing features only develop during the breeding season (in the spring time). That said, females may be deeper in the body than males.
The "Comet" is a variety of Goldfish that has a long, single tail.

no. i have had two big comet goldfish with my, little 2 inch fish, and they never ate him.
In looks or behaviour outside of breeding season, no. During breeding season the female may get a bit fatter with eggs, and the male will get breeding stars on it's gill plates and sometimes along the pectoral fins.
