What "Just Me Koi" said, and to add, comets can be very hard on fantail
type goldfish females. I love shubunkins, but I don't put them in my
lilypond with my moors, orandas & ryunkins.... In fact, I only have one
type of male in there so I sort of know what the parentage is. ~ jan

Hi all

I've got a question...
What I'm going to ask might be common knowledge to most of you, but i'm
relatively new to the pond scene.

How likely is it that different kinds of goldfish will interbreed in a
pond?
I've got quite a large pond with Comets, and they are breeding prefusely.(
it is now summer here in South Africa ) and i'm thinking of adding
Fantails
and Black Moors. Will every kind stick to their own or is this a bad idea?
Thanx...
