FAQ for Thai Oranda Panda
1. What should I feed my Thai Oranda Panda?
Offer a mix of high-quality goldfish pellets, flakes, and occasional live or frozen foods like bloodworms, brine shrimp, or daphnia. Supplement their diet with blanched vegetables like peas or zucchini to aid digestion. Feed them 2–3 times daily in portions they can finish within 2–3 minutes to avoid overfeeding.
2. What is the ideal water temperature for my Thai Oranda Panda?
Maintain water temperatures between 68°F and 75°F (20°C to 24°C). Use a heater and thermometer to ensure consistent temperature levels, which are essential for their health and well-being.
3. What size tank does a Thai Oranda Panda need?
A single Thai Oranda Panda thrives in a 20–30 gallon tank. For multiple fish, opt for a 40-gallon or larger tank to prevent overcrowding and provide ample swimming space. A quality filtration system is critical to maintain clean water.
4. Can Thai Oranda Pandas live with other fish?
Yes, they are peaceful and get along well with other calm goldfish species, such as Ranchus, Lionchus, and other Orandas. Avoid fast-swimming or aggressive fish that could cause stress.
5. How do I care for the wen (head growth) on my Thai Oranda Panda?
The wen is delicate and requires attention. Regularly clean the tank to prevent bacterial or fungal infections. If necessary, gently clean the wen with a soft sponge or toothbrush dipped in aquarium water.
6. What are common health issues for Thai Oranda Pandas?
They are prone to swim bladder disease, Ich, and fin rot. To minimize risk:
- Perform 20–30% water changes weekly.
- Monitor water parameters (pH, ammonia, nitrate).
- Feed a balanced diet.
- Quarantine new fish before introducing them to the tank.
7. How do I acclimate my Thai Oranda Panda to a new tank?
Float the sealed bag in the tank for 15–20 minutes to equalize temperature. Slowly add tank water to the bag over 30–60 minutes. Once acclimated, gently release the fish into the tank.
8. How long can my Thai Oranda Panda live?
With proper care, they can live 10–15 years. Maintaining clean water, a healthy diet, and stable conditions will help them reach their full lifespan.
9. How fast will my Thai Oranda Panda grow?
In their first year, they can grow about 1 inch per month. At maturity, they reach 6–8 inches in length. Growth depends on diet, water quality, and overall care.
10. What are the unique features of the Thai Oranda Panda?
They are prized for their black-and-white "panda-like" coloration, round bodies, and a prominent wen (head growth). The wen develops as the fish matures, adding to its beauty.
11. Can I breed my Thai Oranda Panda?
Yes, with the right setup. Use a breeding tank with spawning mops or plants and maintain water temperatures between 72°F and 78°F (22°C to 25°C). Watch for males chasing females as a sign of spawning readiness.
12. How can I prevent illness in my Thai Oranda Panda?
- Keep the tank clean with regular water changes.
- Offer a varied, high-quality diet.
- Monitor water conditions (pH, ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates).
- Avoid overcrowding.
At the first sign of illness, isolate the fish and seek treatment.

"What You See is What You Get" collection?
With our "What You See is What You Get" collection, you can view the exact fish you'll be receiving. Each fish is photographed individually, so you know exactly what you're purchasing before it arrives at your door.
Do you offer a live arrival guarantee?
Yes! We offer a 100% live arrival guarantee. Our fish are shipped directly from our collections with care, and we stand behind their quality. If your fish arrive in poor condition, please contact us within 24 hours with a photo, and we’ll provide a replacement or refund, as per our terms and conditions.
What is the Direct from Farm collection?
The Direct from Farm collection is our preorder system where you can select fish directly from our farm in Thailand. Because we carefully source each fish, this process takes a little longer—approximately 2 weeks for the fish to arrive from Thailand and another week for quarantine before being shipped to you. This ensures that your fish are healthy and acclimated before they reach your aquarium.
How do I care for my new fish once they arrive?
When your fish arrive, it’s important to acclimate them gradually to your tank’s water temperature. Ensure your aquarium is fully cycled and that water parameters (temperature, pH, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels) are stable.
