![]() He bred goldfish a few times but I never have known him to breed telescopes. If it has protruding eyes then it is a Veiltail Telescope or Broadtail Moor. If it has a hump on the back then it is a Veiltail Ryukin. If the Veiltail also has a head growth then it is a Veiltail Oranda. The Veiltail variety is like a fantail with longer fins. I dunno if David (Ichthius) may have answers on this one. 'Veiltail' is both a characteristic (describing the large fns) and a variety. The telescope ornada is characterized by its large eyes with long telescope or cone like stalk on the side of its head which make it more attractive among the aquarium enthusiasts. Own work by uploader) Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons -Single Tailed Goldfish- This is the first of two main categories of goldfish. Overview The telescope oranda Goldfish has more rounded or egg-shaped body with split caudal fin. You'll find it difficult to obtain a very specific breed like that especially one with red wen and not just red patches around the wen. The fish in the image are, clockwise from top right, Ryukin, Telescope cross Ryukin, Ranchu, Bubble Eye, oranda, and crowned pearlscale.

I really have no specific answer to your question of the possible ratio of resulting fry between orandas and telescopes. Telescope Goldfish, Red (Carassius auratus) Starting at 24.99 Tricolor Ryukin Goldfish (Carassius auratus) Starting at 24.99 21 results. I have a friend whose fry might have been a possible mix of telescope and this is his first batch but I suspect only his orandas spawned even though he noted he combined them with two telescopes. Oranda Goldfish, Assorted (Carrassius auratus) Starting at 25.47 IN STOCK Red Cap Oranda Goldfish (Carassius auratus) Starting at 37.99 IN STOCK. It is favored for its hood or wen on the top of its head, egg shaped body, shimmering scales, a long flowing split caudal fin with brilliant red color which make it more beautiful and attractive among the ornamental fish keepers. I wish I had asked her to obtain this information before but she just disappeared from a goldfish forum I regularly frequent. Red oranda goldfish was originated in the late 1500s by crossing between a lionhead and Japanese Fantail goldfish. I've witnessed someone who owned a oranda x telescope cross but she never asked a previous source if they had breeding information of this. If yours are "dome-shaped", I think you're referring to spherical. I've bred only orandas but do plan to try telescopes later on and I had done a lot of reading on Joseph Smartt's Goldfish Genetics book.Īnyway, I wanted you to note there are four eye forms of telescopes to begin with.Īccording to Joseph Smartt, author of the Goldfish Genetics handbook, the globe eyes often sport the truncated cones whereas the moors, especially broadtails, sport a more spherical eye form. You have to understand though genetics in goldfish is so understudied and with almost a hundred variants already available (and some completely wiped out as a result of lack of studies to retain their standard appearance) especially with telescopes, genetics is bound to be way too complex. Doh! I tried to post last night but my other laptop is too slow.
