Yes, those are normal things for fish that just went through a stressful shipping ordeal. Except for when I filmed this video, I've been keeping the lights off and I'm holding off on feeding them for a little bit to let them destress. Daily 50% water changes for the first several days are also going to help them settle in. :)
I just bought some matte Bristol Shubunkins from Gary Hater and I feel like the biggest fan girl! Lol He’s done so much for the hobby and his fish are gorgeous.
It depends on how you define "rare". They were hard for me to find, but only because most breeders cull them. They are seen as undesirable because the standard for bristol shubunkins say the fish must be calico to be shown.
awesome, and btw i love love you videos you have taught me so much about my comet Goldie named Sunny, he is much happier and healthier thanks to your wonderful advise, he is a year old, and can you believe i had him in a 10 gal tank. like a week later i got him a 75 gal :D thank you!!
beautiful fish! their tail somewhat remind me of the butterfly wings that a child would draw.. cute. though thy dont look like they're in top notch condition. i noticed some abnormal breathing and random zips.. what are those things signs of? are you worried about it?
These fish are not common feeder fish. If you look at the shape of their tail they are bristol shubunkin, which are quite difficult to get your hands on. Give her a little time and she will groom them into really beautiful fish.
Are these matte white Bristol Shubunkin Rare because I thought the only coloring available is the "Calico" ones. I know the Shubunkin are more common then the Bristol Shubunkin. I love their tails.
Nice fish jennie. Will you plz help me about red streaks in the tails and fins of my oranda goldfish..Tank is 120g and 9 goldies are in there. One sump and power head filter,ammonia readings are also in control and i change 80% water after 15 days
These wouldve been culled if one was breeding pure bristol shubunkins, as they need to have a mix of colors. And you cant call a comet a sarasa if its all red.
Do you ever plan on putting the Shubunkins and Butterfly together in the same tank?! Is that something that is recommend or should it be avoided and they be kept separate from each other!?
Jovany Lopez Single-tailed goldfish are very athletic swimmers compared to fancy goldfish, so it's not recommended to put them together. The single-tailed fish will also swim to the food faster and won't leave much for the fancy goldfish, which would stress them out. The fancy goldfish may even get bullied by the single-tailed fish.
i bought 2 at walmart..2 of my 1st fish purchases ever. i've since learned/ decided not to purchase my fish there anymore, but these 2 matte shubunkins are thriving, and 2 of my favorite fish ! they're in a 55 gallon tank, with 1 picasimus, [spelling?], 5 glo fish and one female betta. they all get along, i've had them about 3 years. they are actually spawning now, that's why i'm on here, as this is new to me...eggs everywhere ! i have a blacklight/ glo fish light i turn on nightly for my glo fish, and as long as it's a female, a betta loves being in a big tank with friends. she's so friendly
nice beautiful fish but in yr tank size video u said they need atleast 40 gallons per fish yr tank can only hold 2 just saying but im shour u know whay u are doing
Nah not ghosts just reject calico Shubunkins. You get quite a lot in any spawn of calico. Completely matte without much colour. Called pinkies. These are culled. Matte with good colour are sometimes kept. I think they're attractive myself but when you get so many every time while trying to get good calico it gets irritating. A bit like those that don't colour up from the wild type, same same that kind of common. Very nice form these are though. I think that makes all the difference rare enough in themselves because they're not commercialy produced..
These are beautiful!!! I love the simplicity of your tank decor.
What beautiful babies! I look forward to more videos and updates on them. (:
They are adorable! I'm happy that they all arrived safely. I always look forward to your fish videos. :)

Solid Gold Aquatics I don't know my shubokins colour is blue and white is it is normal in my fish colour
Omggggggggg I wish you still had these 😥😥😥💙💙💙
If you've been following my Facebook page, you know that they're now living in the 55 gallon tank in my basement fish room. ;)
black aquarium pebbles stones + White Bristol Shubunkins = very Zen
Great video. Beautiful fish :)
They look great. Im excited to their growth under your care. Are you going to do periodic measures and weigh ins?

Beautiful fish
They're so cute and elegant! I want to use black sand but I'm don't know if it would be hard to clean. Any tips?
Wauw they look awesome, with normal eyes and stuff! :P
i like the music and the fish tank is really cool
Beautiful!
I actually have a recent video showing how to clean aquarium sand. :)

Beautiful
Do you still raise these Shubunkin Goldfish? Very nice fish.
They are adorable, happy to know they are safe :) u sure have some bad luck with shipping :p
Are those goldfish? I've been keeping fish for 25 years and haven't seen those before they look cool as hell. I'd like to get my hands on some.
Gorgeous...very lucky fish :-)

Love these ❤️❤️❤️
That's sad that they cull them for that reason. I guess the 4 you have are the LUCKY ones. But the same thing happens with breeds of dogs as well

You should do an update on the fish room! :D
oh my gosh they are all so pretty :) how big will they get? I love the way they show in your tank :)
i have the same exact one but i thought it was a comet then i was shocked to find out tat it was a shubunkin thankssss mate cheers :)))
wheres the old gang?? i hope you still do videos of them :D they are awesome!!
I have some, and can I ask if their gills are supposed to be red?
Nice fish jennie. Will you plz help me about red streaks in the tails and fins of my oranda goldfish..Tank is 120g and 9 goldies are in there. One sump and power head filter,ammonia readings are also in control and i change 80% water after 15 days
Adorable fish you have! Driving in 95+ degree weather is a killer, did you have AC? My favorite is Haunt :-)
I got a calico shubunkin today. And the tail is like a mix of the bristol and japanese look. He's 9 inches counting fins and I got him for $9.
omg i found a comettail goldfish at the pet store and fell in love with it. i took him home and named him Stoker cause of his vampire like appearance
I had a wakin that was 'white', love that color. But dont they cease to be shubunkins if they dont have 'shubunkin' mix of colours?

Lindos....parabéns e continua assim. Abraço - fábio - Brasil
I am already doing something very similar to that.

*excited to see
I reccomend feeding them 4 to 6 times a day (small amount), and two times a week a 50 percent water change.
where can you purchase bristol shubukin goldfish
if i was a goldfish i'd prefer to be taken care of by you! i'm not just talking about this video. i'm talking about all your works. congratulations!
Great Names!
yes i would like to know where can i buy these? is there a website i can order them from?
You should pump that water to a grow bed and you could have an awesome aquaponic system.
Where did you get these?

They look so cool Jennie"
Is this going to be their permanent home?
No, ghost is not a technical term. It's just a name I am giving to my pinky bristols as a group.
But wat about Luca and the others? :"(
You do know that they fish grow very big? (13 inches)
