Varieties; Oranda, Ryukin and Veiltail in this study; sexual maturity, reproduction period, egg laying, crossing of varieties, fecundity, egg hatching, larval feeding and the characteristics of hybrids of goldfish were determined. Survival rate, coloration, having single or double tail and anal fin, anomalies and similarity rates with parents depend on characteristics above were investigated in order to determine the characteristics of hybrids. According to the results in this study, the similarity rate with parents were the lowest (10.06%) in Oranda ♂ x Veiltail ♀ and (9.22%) Veiltail ♂x Oranda ♀, and the higest (47.75%) in Ryukin ♂ x Oranda ♀. Productive results were not obtained when same varietes were crossed. However the best results were obtained from crossing of Oranda x Ryukin and Ryukin x Veiltail. Key Words: Goldfish, Oranda, Ryukin, Veiltail, Reproduction and Hybridization. Özet: Bu çalışmada; japon balıklarının eşeysel olgunluk ve üreme dönemi, yumurta alımı, varyetelerin çaprazlanması, yumurta verimi ve yumurtaların kuluçkalanması, larvaların beslenmesi ve melezlerin özellikleri belirlendi. Melezlerin özelliklerinin belirlenmesinde ise yavruların yaşama oranı, renklenme, kuyruk yüzgecinin çift veya tek oluşu, anal yüzgecin çift veya tek oluşu, dış görünüş olarak meydana gelen bozukluklar ve bunlara bağlı olarak ana-babaya benzerlik oranları incelendi. Bu araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre, ana-babaya benzerlik oranı en düşük Oranda ♂ x Veiltail ♀ (%10.06) ve Veiltail ♂ x Oranda ♀ (%9.22) gruplarında, en yüksek Ryukin ♂ x Oranda ♀ (%47.75) grubunda elde edildi. Sonuç olarak, aynı özelliklere sahip varyeteler birbirleri ile çaprazlandığında verimli sonuçlar alınamadı. En verimli sonuçlar Oranda x Ryukin ve Ryukin x Veiltail çaprazlamalarından elde edildi.

Strain Oranda Rian Nur Ahlam*, Walim Lili, Herman Hamdani, Rosidah and Ibnu Bangkit Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, Padjadjaran University, Sumedang, West Java, Indonesia *E-mail address: [email protected] ABSTRACT Goldfish is one of the most famous ornamental fish because of its body shape and color which was interesting to be maintained. The purpose of this research was to find the optimum dose of pumpkin and carrot flour combination on artificial feed to increase color brightness of goldfish. Complete Randomized Design with four treatments and four replications were used in the experiment. For the treatments, pumpkin flour 15%, pumpkin flour 7.5% with carrot flour 2.5% and carrot flour 5%, were studied. The parameters observed were color intensity, survival rate, and water quality. The results showed that supplementation of combination of pumpkin flour 7.5% with carrot flour 2.5% gave the highest color intensity of goldfish with TCF code 0815 and score 2.11 with 100% survival rate. Water qualities during the research were still in optimal condition. Keywords: Goldfish, Color intensity, Pumpkin flour, Carrot flour, Carassius auratus 1. INTRODUCTION One of the freshwater aquarium fish which is quite popular among fans of ornamental fish is the goldfish. Goldfish has diverse body shapes and vary in colors ranging from red, yellow, green, black to goldish. Varieties of goldfish that are now scattered among the ornamental fish were recorded.

  • Goldfish Morphology As a Model for Evolutionary Developmental Biology
    Overview Goldfish morphology as a model for evolutionary developmental biology Kinya G. Ota* and Gembu Abe Morphological variation of the goldfish is known to have been established by artificial selection for ornamental purposes during the domestication process. Chinese texts that date to the Song dynasty contain descriptions of goldfish breeding for ornamental purposes, indicating that the practice originated over one thousand years ago. Such a well-documented goldfish breeding process, combined with the phylogenetic and embryological proximities of this species with zebrafish, would appear to make the morphologically diverse goldfish strains suitable models for evolutionary developmental (evodevo) studies. How- ever, few modern evodevo studies of goldfish have been conducted. In this review, we provide an overview of the historical background of goldfish breed- ing, and the differences between this teleost and zebrafish from an evolutionary perspective. We also summarize recent progress in the field of molecular devel- opmental genetics, with a particular focus on the twin-tail goldfish morphology. Furthermore, we discuss unanswered questions relating to the evolution of the genome, developmental robustness, and morphologies in the goldfish lineage, with the goal of blazing a path toward an evodevo study paradigm using this tel- eost species as a new model species. © 2016 The Authors.

  • TOP-VIEW GOLDFISH: the OTHER PERSPECTIVE Steve Hopkins
    TOP-VIEW GOLDFISH: THE OTHER PERSPECTIVE Steve Hopkins By some accounts, there are over three hundred varieties of goldfish. These can be grouped in various ways such as by tail type, presence or absence of head growth, presence or absence of dorsal fin, eye shape, etc. They can also be grouped based on a whether they were bred and selected to be viewed from the top or viewed from the side. Originally, all goldfish were kept in shallow ponds, ceramic bowls or other containers and viewed from the top. Considering the thousand-year history of goldfish keeping, the glass aquarium is a relatively new innovation which did not come into use until about 150 years ago. However, being able to easily view goldfish from the side through glass has undoubtedly influenced what characteristics are selected for and impacted the development of new varieties. Today, the goldfish hobbyists are a diverse group. While most goldfish are destined for the home aquarium and represent an indoor diversion, goldfish ponds, tubs and goldfish in the water garden continue to increase in popularity. When choosing a goldfish, it is important to consider how it will be viewed and select a variety which is appropriate for the setting in which it will be displayed. In selecting a top-view goldfish, remember that they are typically seen against a dark background. It does not matter what color your tub or pond was when it was new, over time the surfaces will become covered with algae and other growth and appear dark green to black. Without doubt, red and white metallic-scale goldfish provide the contrast to display best against a dark background.

  • Basic Goldfish Terms & Concepts
    Goldfish Varieties – Odds & Ends By Peter J. Ponzio In the original article for this series, we defined a number of characteristics common to all goldfish, and introduced the concept of goldfish varieties, or different types of goldfish. Each subsequent article would provide detailed guidelines to appreciate and understand the characteristics of each variety recognized by the Goldfish Society of America (GFSA). Line Art for the GFSA standards has been provided courtesy of Merlin Cunliffe. The prior articles of this series covered all the varieties recognized by the GFSA, and now the American Goldfish Association (AGA). Goldfish are quite variable, however, and new combinations of fish are being introduced constantly. Some of these combinations will not catch-on to become established varieties, while others languish because they are not regularly seen in this country. In terms of classification at goldfish shows, most of these fish are placed in the “Other” category, and do well in that grouping. In order for these fish to win major awards, they must be quite exceptional in order to place before the traditional varieties of goldfish. We’ll divide this article up into varieties that are established, but not frequently seen in the U.S., and varieties which are truly new combinations of features, some of which might catch-on and others which might be viewed as one-off attempts at a new variety. Most new types of goldfish originate in China, and more recently, in Thailand. The Chinese seem to enjoy combining various goldfish characteristics in new patterns, mixing dorsal fins on fish that we consider dorsal-less, or adding head-growth and eye characteristics on one fish.

    Goldfish Varieties – Ryukin By Peter J. Ponzio In the original article for this series, we defined a number of characteristics common to all goldfish, and introduced the concept of goldfish varieties, or different types of goldfish. Each subsequent article would provide detailed guidelines to appreciate and understand the characteristics of each variety recognized by the Goldfish Society of America (GFSA). Line Art for the GFSA standards has been provided courtesy of Merlin Cunliffe. In the prior article, we discussed the fantail goldfish, which developed as a result of a natural mutation from the original single-tail varieties. The fantail was subsequently bred to achieve consistent tail separation, a deeper body structure, and elongated fins. Gradually, different color types were developed, and the fantail, as we know it, was finally stabilized. The Ryukin is probably a development from the fantail goldfish and was selectively bred to emphasize the unique characteristics of this variety. Development of the Ryukin occurred in the Far East, with claims being made for its development both in China and Japan. For our purpose, it is not essential to identify the exact locus of development, but rather to acknowledge the dedication of the fish farmers who stabilized this variety in the Far East. The Ryukin is a double-tail goldfish, which possesses an oval body shape, which is almost round, and paired anal, ventral and pectoral fins. The dorsal fin is usually 1/3 the depth of the body, and the caudal fin, which is forked, is from ¾ to 1-1/2 times the length of the body.

  • FL 57. Care of Goldfish
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE BUREAU OF SPORT FISHERIES AND WILDLIFE Branch of Fish Hatcheries Leaflet FL- 57 Washington 25, D. C. Revised February 1962 CARE OF GOLDFISH HISTlW- Though now found in almost every country in the world, i n captivity and out, the goldfish, Carassius auratus, originated in easter n China as a red mutation of a normally greenish-silvery fish closely rel a ted to and generally resembling the carp. With the carp and many other smaller freshwater fishes including the "barbs" so well-known to t ropical fiSh hobbyists, the goldfish belongs to the great family Cyprinida e which, oddly enough, is found much more abundantly in the Northern Hemisphere than in the Southern. Xanthic, or orange, color mutations occasionally occur among a variety of wild fishes including the carp its elf, but a s i n the case of albinos , or pure white fishes, these do not oft en live to reproduce their kind under natural conditions, since t heir conspicuous appearance makes them easy t argets for predat ors. In captivity, on the other hand, goldfishes have been bred for many centuries and, by t aking advantage of certain additional mutations of a hereditary character, the breeders have produced a number of odd and colorful varieties , i ncl uding some with odd scales, double tails and fins, no s cales at all, or with certain fins missing altogether, shortened backbones , and enlarged eyes. Though known in the Orient for centuries, the goldfish is a com­ paratively recent arriv ~ l to the western world.

MITSUKURI, Ph. D.• Professor of 7,ooZO{/!/, Imperial Univer.9ity, Tokyo, Japan. While the pasturage of cattle and the cultivation of plants marked very early steps in man's advancement toward civilization, the raising of aquatic animals and plants, on any extensive scale at all events, seems to belong to much later stages of human development. In fact, the cultivation of some marine animals has been ren­ dered possible only by utilizing the most recent discoveries and methods of science. I believe, however, the time is now fast approaching when the increase of population on the earth, and the question of food supply which must arise as a necessary conse­ quence, will compel us to pay most serious attention to the utilization for this purpose of what has been termed the "watery waste." For man to overfish and then to wait for the bounty of nature to replenish, or, failing that, to seek new fishing grounds, is, it seems to me, an act to be put in the same category with the doings of nomadic peoples wandoring from place to place in search of pastures.
