"Hi my name is Chris from Aquatic Central here in San Francisco, and on the web at aquatic-central.com, and I'd like to tell you how to identify different types of goldfish. Goldfish are identified by their physical characteristics, by their body shapes, their fineage. There are numerous types of goldfish, ranging from Ranchus, Ryukin, Shubukin, Lionheads. If I can give one example of a Fantail. This is a typical Fantail, with a short stocky body and a triangular tail in the back. Another type of fish is the lionhead. A good example of the lionhead, is right there in the back. They have a large protuderence on the head. Goldfish are generally quite easy to distinguish, however, distinguishing different qualities of fish can be a little more difficult that will require a little bit more practice. Some of the proportions of the fineage, and the coloration are really vital in determining the quality, for examples, different Ranchus, lionheads, or Fantails. My name is Chris from Aquatic Central here in San Francisco and on the web at aquatic-central.com."
