Bubble Eye Goldfish
The bubble eye goldfish is identified by the eye bladders situated beneath each eye. These large, fluid-filled sacs can be cumbersome, and so this breed is a slow swimming fish. They should be housed without sharp ornaments and plants as these may puncture the eye bladders. These will grow back, but should be tended to carefully as damaged eye bladders may be prone to infection. The eyes are located above these sacs and point upward, which causes sight impairment in this breed. Bubble eyes have double tails and no dorsal fin. The body shape is narrower when viewed from above than fantail and ranchu breeds. They can grow to between 6 and 8 inches in length.
