The Thai Orchid Oranda Goldfish (Carassius auratus) is a premium fancy goldfish variety, prized for its elaborate wen (head growth) and flowing double tail fins. At 8cm, this is a well-grown, mature specimen with a developed wen and impressive finnage — a true showpiece for any cold water or temperate aquarium.
