Goldfish can live in very cold water: The metabolism of a goldfish will slow down significantly in cold water, almost like they are hibernating. This means that goldfish can survive in very low temperatures, sometimes even in ponds that have frozen over for the winter!

Goldfish don’t urinate: No fish urinate. Instead of expelling ammonia by urinating (as mammals do), fish filter ammonia from the water using their gills.

Goldfish can see more colors than humans can: Goldfish don’t like to be kept in the dark and, unlike humans, they are able to see ultra-violet and infra-red light.

Goldfish have been kept as pets for over 2000 years: Keeping pet goldfish dates all the way back to ancient China!

Goldfish can’t close their eyes: Goldfish have no eyelids, so they have to sleep with their eyes open!

Selective breeding has led to a huge variety of goldfish shapes and colors: Humans have bred many different varieties of goldfish.

Goldfish can grow to over a foot long: Goldfish can be stunted by being kept in tanks that are too small for them and with bad water quality. However, goldfish can grow to be over a foot long when kept in the right environment.

Goldfish have a memory span of at least three months: Many people say that goldfish have a memory of just a few seconds, but this is a myth! Goldfish have a memory span of at least three months!

Goldfish can recognize people’s faces: Goldfish can tell different faces apart and are able to distinguish between different shapes, colors and sounds.

The collective noun for goldfish is “a troubling”: Just like you’d say “a herd of cows”, you’d say “a troubling of goldfish”!

Goldfish have been known to live for over 40 years: With proper care, goldfish can live for decades. This goldfish was said to be 45 years old.

Goldfish don’t have stomachs: They should be fed easily digestible food in lots of small feeding sessions, rather than lots of food at once. This is also why goldfish produce so much waste and why you need a filter to keep their water clean.
