The Book Contents Section 1 – Overview, History, Care, Selection, and Anatomy A quick overview of the Goldfish; where it came from, some basic information on the different physical attributes possible, and their basic environmental needs are covered. Goldfish have been cultivated for a thousand years and during that time moved from China their homeland to first Japan and then progressively across Europe. If you want your Goldfish to be disease free and contented, here you will find some basic care guidelines that need to be followed. Selecting healthy fish to buy from a pet shop is almost impossible but here you learn how to treat them during the quarantine period. You need to be familiar with the external and internal parts of a Goldfish so you know when something is not normal. Section 2 – Aquariums, Filters, and Plants Aquariums come in a variety of shapes and materials. Depending on what the primary use of your aquarium will be should guide you on the best one to purchase. There is a huge variety of filters available. One of the most important aspects of filter purchase is getting one of the appropriate size for your setup. If the wrong plants are used in a Goldfish aquarium you will find just stalks left by the next morning. Section 3 – How and What to Feed Goldfish Feeding Goldfish is one of the most important parts of Goldfish care. The fancier the variety, the more important it is that their diet doesn’t cause digestive problems such as swim bladder disorder. Section 4 – Common Diseases and Dangers This section covers fungal, bacterial and parasitical diseases and covers 14 of the more common diseases.

Each variety has its own special needs. Learn which varieties can and shouldn’t be mixed together. Section 6 – Breeding Goldfish and Raising Fry Many enthusiasts breed their fish; few raise any to adulthood. Once you have successfully spawned your Goldfish, the book details how to avoid parasite infestation and the best and easiest food to prepare and feed your fry is explained. Section 7 – Live Food Cultures To be successful raising Goldfish from fry to adult requires culturing live foods, especially when the fry are under a month old. One of the easiest live foods to grow is brine shrimp which is ideal as a first food for fry. Section – 8 Ponds, Filters and Clarifiers Installing a Goldfish pond can be a large commitment. There are many decisions to be made before work starts. Location is one of the most important, as is filter selection. Even heavily filtered ponds will go green because most pond filters can’t filter out suspended algae. A UV clarifier can provide crystal clear water all year round. Learn how to calculate what size clarifier you need for your pond (or aquarium).

Download or read book Goldfish written by Anna Marie Roos and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2019-09-15 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living work of art, consumer commodity, scientific hero, and environmental menace: the humble goldfish is the ultimate human cultural artifact. A creature of supposedly little memory and a short lifespan, it has held universal appeal as a reservoir for human ideas and ideals. In ancient China, goldfish were saved from predators in acts of religious reverence and selectively bred for their glittering grace. In the East, they became the subject of exquisite art, regarded as living flowers that moved, while in the West, they became ubiquitous residents of the Victorian parlor. Cheap and eminently available, today they are bred by the millions for the growing domestic pet market, while also proving to be important to laboratory studies of perception, vision, and intelligence. In this illuminating homage to the goldfish, Anna Marie Roos blends art and science to trace the surprising and intriguing history of this much-loved animal, challenging our cultural preconceptions of a creature often thought to be common and disposable.
