Vail Tail
Veiltail goldfish is a fancy goldfish variety renowned for its exceptionally long, flowing, and delicate fins that resemble a graceful veil. This feature has led to the term "veiltail" being used for any goldfish with such finnage, though true Veiltails have specific body and fin shapes.
Basic Information
Identification & Characteristics
Identification
They have wide trailing fins and their caudal fins trail downward like a lady?s skirt. Veiltails are similar to Fringetails, although they lack the dorsal hump that most Fringetails have. If you look closely you will see that there is also a small indent between the tails.
Sexual Dimorphism
Females have rounder, thicker bodies and a rounder vent, while males are slimmer and have a more oval vent. Males often develop small white spots called tubercles on their gill covers and fins during breeding, and their pectoral fins are longer and pointier compared to the shorter, rounder fins of females.
Behaviour Details
Living in small groups , naturally found at mid-depth and near the bottom.
Water Parameters
