and do they lay eggs or babies
Answers:
Goldfish are egg layers not livebearers.
The female lays the eggs in a cluster and the male fertilizes them by swimming over them and releasing sperm.
During breeding season, the male goldfish will develop tiny lumps behind the gills called tubercles. This signifies he is ready to fertilize eggs.
Female goldfish that are pregnant will have a very distended abdomen and will look very fat. After a few days they will lay the eggs. Once the eggs hatch the parents and other fish in the tank will not tend to the fry and in some cases will readily eat them, so they have to be separated from the young.
They swim upside down so the eggs dont fall out
lay eggs.
trust me, your goldfish is not pregnant. they are very hard to breed, and they dont lay eggs in captivity normally, unless an expert breeds them. if you want a fish to have babies, get a few mollies(tropical fish). you will need a big tank, heater and filter though for the fish to live.
They also give up smoking and drinking and have strange food cravings like pickled onions. You may notice they start buying tiny little goldfish bootys and painting the spare room. They should avoid foods like pate and liver etc.
Fish don't "get pregnant." The female lays eggs.
A bloated goldfish is either overfed (fat, to be more blunt) or sick/bloated. Or both. Don't overfeed the poor thing.
I dont think u can tell, but try looking in the bottom of the tank/bowl and if you see some gooey wiggly transperent thing it may be eggs.
She orders pizza with extra anchovies and eats pickles with icecream. :)
They start craving and eating weird things that they normally would not bother with;)
/maybe
if ur gold fish is fatter then usual then shes pregnant and they lay eggs.probably shes not cause its hard to breed them and they don't lay eggs in captivity
They wear maternity clothes.
Goldfish don't get pregnant. If the conditions are right, the female lays the eggs and then male then fertilises them with their sperm around the fishtank. The eggs that will would hatch are opaque, the clear ones are infertile. If this happens, remove the eggs and house them in there own little fish tank, as the adult fish will eat them thinking they are food.
Goldfish don't get pregnant, they are egg layers.
I couldn't tell either time that my female was full of eggs. They can get a little bigger but you can only tell by looking at them from the top down. And it's not hard at all to breed goldfish, both times they did it all on their own and they live in a tank. I actually had to separate them cause I don't want them to breed anymore.
yourl know when you have extra fish in your tank!!
Most fish, including goldfish do not carry live young - only the eggs.
It is well known to be extremely difficult to breed your own goldfish and even if yours did lay eggs there is very little chance of any of them hatching.
They change their eating habits..they'll eat coal, chalk, etc. You'll find them at the fridge bingeing in the middle of the night when they ought to be asleep. A padlock would be best.
i wouldnt say your goldfish is pregnant its hard to breed them
the female will look larger when viewed from the top and they lay eggs usually on the leaves of the plants , if you have snails in the tank ,you wont get any babies as the snails eat the eggs..
can end up with 3-4 out of 30 eggs if your lucky..
they do breed in tanks as i have bred them
because they sttopping moving aaround that quick then you can tell wjats wrong with them answer me this question do you like fish ?
Well if they are yours then did you put opposite sexes together? if you did then they may behave uncharacteristicallly for a few weeks, trying to make a nest and gather food, that sort of stuff, so check them carefully for sighns of enlargement and random eggs dropping out
They get fat and produce eggs, then the rest of the fish
will eat them ! well, thats my experience, I will be looking
at your replys wiv interest !!
Morning sickness
