Pearlscale

The pearlscale is a very amazing fish because of it's unique shape and of course, his scales. This fish is also called a golfball fish because of it's unique body shape wich is shaped like a golfball.

This fish grows 6-8 inches but will indded grow very slowly, there perfect Tank fish. I recommend that this fish not be kept with other fish that can move swiftly, like the shubunkin, common goldfish, comet ex. But if you do try to teach your fish how to eat out of your hand so it's a fair game in the race to food. Only use silk plants in your aquarium because the plastic plants can pick of the pearlscale's scales. This fish is probaly not a very good beginner fish but it's not a medium difficulty fish ether, so probably somewhere in between there.

Here are some Pearlscale care tips:

-Don't keep with fish that move swiftly. (A couple are listed above)

-These fish live better in a tank rather than a pond because of there unique shape

-Don't use plastic plants in your aquarium because the plastic plants may pick of the goldfish's scales

-It's a good idea to teach them how to eed from your hand so it's a fair game in the race to food

-These fish prefer food that float such as flakes over sinking pelets
