How do Shubunkins breed?
Goldfish (including shubunkins and Sarasa comets,) Koi, Tench, Orfe and Rudd are all egg scatterers. Summer temperatures warm pond water and the female's bellies start to swell up with eggs. You may notice that some of your fish are bigger and fatter than others, and they're the females.
How can you tell if a Shubunkin is male or female?
Shubunkins have a few minor physical differences. Males have slightly thicker fin rays on their pectoral or side fins. Additionally, females have more rounded bodies, particularly when viewed from above.
Can Shubunkins breed with common goldfish?
All are the same species and can interbreed. Often people ask if shubunkins can breed with common goldfish or if fantails can breed with comets. Well, they are all the same species. ... Goldfish can also be any combination of each of these varieties in which case they may be multiple varieties at the same time.
How long does it take for Shubunkin to grow?
It may take several months for the nacreous coloration to develop on a young fry (baby fish). Shubunkins are excellent pond fish because they reach a length of 9 to 18 inches (23 to 46 cm) at adulthood. A Shubunkin goldfish is considered an adult at 1 to 2 years of age, even though they live much longer.
