Pearlscale Goldfish Part II

About a year ago, I got my hands upon a couple of Pearlscale goldfish and it was very fun to have those cute, puffed-up fishes swimming around in the aquarium. I recently got my hands on a batch of the same type of goldfish for retailing on my online store, MAGS-Pets and imagine the fun of watching all of them together. These will still change their color, especially those plain bronze colored ones. They are placed in the small tank temporarily only for picture-taking and was returned to their much bigger sized enclosure afterwards. If they don’t all get sold, I hopefully will be posting an update on them, especially when they have developed their coloration.

This blog has been very quiet for so long and I really do wish that I can try to liven it up a bit by frequently adding up new posts. Keep an eye for future posts and please don’t hesitate to leave comments. It would really help to encourage me to write more blog posts. Till next time, happy pet-keeping everyone!
