Blackmoor Goldfish




This is an all-black veiltail with telescopic eyes, by which is meant that the eyes are on the end of the fleshy growth. These "telescopes" take two to three years to develop fully. This fish is of the metallic scale type. Ideally, it should be black all over, but often-and with age-a bronze hue will appear on the underside and the fins. this breed is very popular in the fishkeeping hobby and sought after as a bowl specimen - probably because of its bizarre apperance.
