Why are goldfish called goldfish when they aren't golden?
In ancient china, carp were silver and were kept as pets in ponds. there were genetic mutations that made some of the fish turn yellowish instead of silver. these fish were found and mated with other fish of the kind, until the fish became almost a bright yellow color. this was entirely new to the people of china, and varied from normal carp. the fish eventually became so beautiful that regular people were not allowed to keep them as pets. due to their rarity and color, they were called golden fish, which became goldfish. the term "goldfish" does not only refer to the color of the fish, but also to the breed availability and rarity at the time as when compared to other fish.
What is the differences from a goldfish and a feeder fish?
a goldfish is a feeder fish. I kind of disagree with the answer above. Yes, goldfish CAN be feeder fish, but they aren't necessarily feeder fish. Feeder fish are really fish that are rather small and are fed to other animals, and that are for some reason thought as not being as precious as other "pet" fish. So a feeder fish and a pet fish are two different kinds of fish, really. Not all goldfish are feeder fish. There are expensive goldfish, more than 10 dollars per fish! Then there are those goldfish breeded to be eaten that are sold as 75 cents per fish. So there are "pet" goldfish and "feeder" goldfish. So, a goldfish is not necessarily a feeder fish.
