There are more than 100 types of Fancy Goldfish, and Orandas are amongst the most popular. These fish are technically goldfish,Carassius auratus, though they've been specially bred to look very different than their more common cousins.
Orandas are characterised by their stout bodies, long, trailing fins and a prominent, bubble-like ˜hood' (sometimes known as a wen) on their heads. They come in many different sizes and colours, from small to giant and platinum to chocolate. This red and white colour morph has red and white markings across its entire body, including on its fins and head.
Some Orandas develop huge hoods as they age, and these are known as Jelly Head Orandas. These are some of the most sought-after fish in the Fancy Goldfish hobby the larger and more colourful the hood, the more sought after they are!

This fish was a surprise for me. I ordered off the picture thinking, "He looks like he might be different". Once I got him, he is now one of my favorite fish. Pictures do not do him justice, he is gorgeous! Highly recommend.
Fish was dead on arrival. Sent an email requesting another, but have not gotten a reply. Will change my review when a receive another green texas cichlid.
Awesome fish. They came fast and in excellent condition. This is another purchase from Danaquarium. For sure I will purchase from them again. Thank you very much.
