Oranda Panda Goldfish FAQ
Can request Male or Female
What is an Oranda Panda Goldfish?
The Oranda Panda is a unique variety of Oranda goldfish, known for its striking black-and-white coloration, resembling a panda. It features a distinctive head growth (wen) and graceful flowing fins, making it a favorite among goldfish enthusiasts.
How big do Oranda Panda Goldfish grow?
They typically grow between 6 to 8 inches, but in spacious and well-maintained tanks or ponds, they can reach up to 10 inches.
What size tank do they need?
A minimum of 20 gallons per fish is recommended, with an additional 10 gallons for each additional goldfish. A larger tank is always better for maintaining water quality and providing ample swimming space.
What are the ideal water conditions?
- Temperature: 65–75°F
- pH: 6.5–7.5
- Water Hardness: Moderate (gH 6–12)
- Filtration: Strong filtration is necessary as goldfish produce a lot of waste.
Are they good tank mates for other fish?
Yes, but they should be kept with other slow-swimming, peaceful goldfish varieties. Avoid fin-nipping or fast-swimming fish, as they can outcompete the Oranda for food.
What should I feed them?
Oranda Panda Goldfish thrive on a varied diet, including:
- High-quality goldfish pellets or flakes
- Blanched vegetables (peas, spinach, zucchini)
- Occasional treats like bloodworms or brine shrimp
How do I care for their wen (head growth)?
The wen requires clean, well-oxygenated water to prevent infections. Occasionally, wen overgrowth may require trimming by an experienced aquarist or vet.
Do they need a heater?
While they can tolerate cooler water, a stable temperature between 65–75°F is best. If your room temperature fluctuates significantly, a heater can help maintain stability.
How often should I clean their tank?
- Perform weekly water changes of 25–30 percent.
- Use a gravel vacuum to remove waste and uneaten food.
- Monitor ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels to keep water quality in check.
Are Oranda Pandas easy to care for?
They require moderate care due to their delicate wen, high waste production, and sensitivity to water quality. However, with proper care and maintenance, they can live 10–15 years or more.

"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.
