Bubble Eye

GoldFish NQ-GF-0013

The Bubble Eye Goldfish is a fascinating breed that instantly draws attention with its unique and delicate features. Due to these prominent eye sacs, the Bubble Eye Goldfish is considered one of the more delicate varieties of goldfish. The sacs are prone to injury, and thus, they require an environment free from sharp objects and abrasive decorations. This sensitivity necessitates a carefully curated tank setting, emphasizing safety and gentleness. Apart from their eye-catching sacs, these goldfish have a streamlined body and lack a dorsal fin, contributing to their unique silhouette. Their movements are often described as gentle and somewhat slow, aligning with their fragile nature. As a breed, the Bubble Eye Goldfish epitomizes the blend of vulnerability and beauty, requiring attentive care but rewarding aquarists with a truly extraordinary aquatic spectacle
