Care Requirements

Aquarium Size

A minimum 20-gallon aquarium is recommended for one juvenile Pingpong Pearlscale Goldfish. Adults should be housed in a 30-gallon aquarium or larger, with additional space for multiple fish.

For the best results, provide:

• High-quality biological filtration
• Gentle water circulation
• Excellent oxygenation
• Stable water conditions
• Weekly partial water changes
• Smooth décor and open swimming areas

Because of their rounded body and slower swimming speed, Pearlscales should be kept with other peaceful fancy goldfish.
