If there are males and females present in the same tank and the female is full of eggs, the male will chase her and poke his head against her side & belly to convince her to release eggs. If she does release eggs, he will release what is called milt to attempt to fertilize the eggs.

Goldfish are egg layers and spawn during springtime. One spawning can produce several thousand fry.

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.
