wow Jeff - that is a lot of goldfish - we will stick with our few pets!
Martin - our pairs have laid eggs but nothing has hatched - even though we removed them because the adults were eating them as fast as they were laid! Not actually sure that we have pairs, so eggs might not have been fertile - but know we have at least one female in each group!
My mom has common goldfish in her pond and they breed every summer - pretty soon she will have as many as Jeff! They do not retain the gold color though, most are yellowish.
