Wakin Goldfish/WAKIN-goldfish
Previous | Home | NextThe Wakin (Carassius auratus)
Pronounced WAH-KEEN, although you may hear it pronounced as Wah-Kin often in North America. The Wakin is the most common, least expensive goldfish found in Japan. Calling this fish a "Japanese wakin goldfish" is actually redundant since "Wakin" in Japanese literally means "Japanese Goldfish". It is basically akin to our common comet goldfish found here in availablity and known for hardiness.
