Even though fishes are not as popular as other pets can be (such as dogs and cats), they have one little detail in favor: when you get your fishes, you must keep them in a fish tank and we can assure you that such environments easily surpass any other pet’s space. Fish aquariums and tanks are without a doubt one of the most beautiful elements for us to have at home and it is therefore essential for us to take good control of it in order to make it the best aquarium we can possibly have. An important part of having a marvelous aquarium is knowing which type of fishes we are choosing and today we are here to talk to you about goldfishes, some of the most popular and vibrant fishes in the market.

When we talk about goldfishes we refer to the commonest and most extensive fish specie for domestic aquariums and fish tanks. They were one of the first fishes to ever be domesticated and we can assure you that they have been around humans as their pets for a very long time. They are original from China even though they became extremely popular in Europe from where they traveled to America and to the rest of the world. They receive their names from their yellow color which gives them a golden appearance, even though there are nowadays many different sub-species that have other combinations of colors.

These freshwater and coldwater fishes are also accessible in terms of price and since they are normally small they are preferred by thousands of fish owners that don’t count with too much space and that must choose between small species. Even though they don’t strictly require heated water, they are great producers of waste and also truly fertile animals that may reproduce in huge amounts so constant cleaning, filtration and birth control are necessary. However, they are really beautiful and worth having fishes that will make of any fish tank or aquarium a truly colorful and unique environment to stare at.
