Your Pet! Cleo & Nemo

Cleo & Nemo in their aquatic wonderland!

These two beautiful goldfish are an unusual but popular breed known as the Red-capped Fancy Oranda Goldfish, a variety of carp bred to develop a hood or wen at the top of the head. As Cleo and Nemo get older, their wens will develop even more fully. Orandas have long, graceful quadruple tails.

Lori, the owner of these Orandas, says that they are a very friendly fish, and, when she is working near their tank, they will watch her with a great deal of curiosity. They look forward to feeding time and greet her with excitement and happiness.

Lori, thank you so much for introducing us to your beautiful fish, our first “finned” members of the YOUR PET! Family!

Any other fish owners out there?

Blessings!

Sue
