Chocolate Oranda Goldfish

There are many different types of fancy goldfish, one popular variety is the oranda goldfish. Chocolate oranda are a breed of goldfish that originate from China, with a prominent bubble-like hood on the head also known as a "wen" or crown. It has a large, long and deep body (they can be as wide as they are long ) accompanied by a long quadruple tail.

Orandas aren’t strong swimmers. As such, they appreciate the most oxygenated waters you can provide. Consider adding air stones to boost the oxygen levels. Planted tanks with enough clear space for swimming are ideal - elodea and Vallisneria are a good choose of plant to use with orandas. When choosing to decorate your aquarium consider objects that wont cause damage to the head (crown/wen) of your oranda.

Chocolate Oranda goldfish make peaceful additions to community tanks and shouldn't cause any problems for the rest of your fish. Oranda goldfish are easy to keep healthy if the tank is clean and they are fed a good diet, making them suitable for beginners.

How big do Chocolate Oranda goldfish get?
A fully grown Chocolate Oranda fancy goldfish usually reaches 15-30cm, around 6-12" inches in length. A high protein feed and a large aquarium will help to achieve maximum growth potential. Care must be taken not to house with smaller fish that can fit in its mouth, when it reaches adult size. 

Can you keep Chocolate Oranda goldfish in an outdoor pond?
Chocolate Oranda goldfish, like many fancy goldfish, will survive in temperatures above 16 degrees, which makes them unsuitable for ponds during cold autumn and winter seasons. Many aquarists keep fancy goldfish like Chocolate oranda's in outdoor or indoor ponds during the summer, and transfer them indoors to an aquarium during the winter months.

Features
Approx. supplied size: 3-4" / 7-10cm
Maximum size: 6-12" / 15-30cm
Origin: China
Binomial name: Carassius auratus
Family: Cyprinidae
Temperament: Peaceful
Lighting requirement: Low
Ideal number kept together: 1+

Water conditions
Our conditions: pH 7.5, temp 22°C
Ideal pH: 6.8–8.0
Water flow: low to moderate
Ideal temperature: 16-28°C

Ease of care
Easy to moderate. Sometimes the wen grows enormously, covering the eyes of the goldfish. Due to this, the eyesight may become limited or even blind. Special care should be given to the wen because it is prone to bacterial infections, and may inhibit the oranda's ability to find food. Being a slow-swimmer, ensure Chocolate Orandas are not out-competed for food if kept with fast swimming fish.

Compatibility
Fancy oranda goldfish are compatible with virtually all community goldfish. As they grow, care must be taken not to house with fin-nippers or smaller fish that they are able to fit in their mouth. Mixing oranda's along with Black Moor, Ryukin, Fantails or Pearlscale goldfish is ideal. They are slow swimmers, non-competitive at feeding and very friendly, making them the perfect tank mates. Oranda goldfish are not a schooling fish but will feel comfortable in a tank with a number of their own species. Other compatible tankmates include shoals of white cloud mountain minnows, plecos and corydoras (in warmer tanks).

Diet
Omnivorous. Feed sinking and floating goldfish pellets, flake and broken-up algae wafer. Will also happily eat bloodworm, brine shrimp and other meaty fresh food (frozen is fine)

Breeding

Egg layers. Goldfish typically spawn in late spring to early summer in temperate regions. In indoor aquaria, you are likely to succeed if you give them a cooler period simulating winter, followed by a gradual warming up to imitate the seasons changing. Orandas can be difficult to sex when small; the females have thinner, narrow pectoral fins, and under the caudal fin you will find the vent (the vent is rounder and more pronounced).

Life Span
Chocolate oranda goldfish can live up to 10-15 years in perfect conditions.

“My heart bows to you and you only, Huntress.”
Format: Kindle
3.5 🌟 This book popped up in my KU recommended reading suggestions and the synopsis sounded like what I was in the mood for. I'm so glad I took a chance on it. I went into this knowing absolutely nothing about it and ended up really liking it. I love when this happens. The main characters are likeable and I easily found myself rooting for them. There is a mystery element to each of their backstories that I enjoyed watching unfold and can't wait to get more of. Wolf, in particular, has me fixated. Love him. I found this to be an entertaining, addictive read with a plot that moves along at a good pace. It reads so easily I found myself very reluctant to put it down. Lots of twists and turns and the angst is there. A good set up for the next book to come, for sure. My issues with this book....the dialogue feels a bit juvenile at times and there is a repetitive over use of a particular word phrasing that I found myself giving the ole eye-roll to. There are, without a doubt, some pretty cliche moments that gave me a bit of the cringe. I think this could've certainly 100% benefited from more depth regarding the world building. Perhaps the world building was sacrificed to keep the pacing quick? Just a guess. Also, the lack of consistency of character for the FMC was really evident and so she feels quite illogical at times. Overall, this was a fun and enjoyable read that hit the spot well enough for me. That ending certainly has me impatiently pining for book 2!

Interesting take on the genre
Format: Kindle
True rating: 3.25 ⭐️ I enjoyed the fresh take on the genre. The best way I could describe the setting and world is an apocalyptic dystopian version of Farie where vampires, fae, and angles struggle to survive in what is left of the world. It was definitely interesting throwing the academy/hunger games aspect into this world as well. Even though I guessed the final reveal early on in the book, I kept hoping I was wrong, and it would take a surprising turn. While the "plot twists" were a bit predictable to me, I still enjoyed the ride this book took me on. Another downfall for me was the plot holes in the world building... I.E. if society has fallen and the world is in the aftermath of war, how are there trains running around the world? Just to take young adults to the trials to get into the golden city? How is the train maintained, the tracks clear, etc? However, I did enjoy the FMC & MMC and thought they were fleshed out nicely. I also enjoyed the side characters but wish some were developed more like Ashalin (sp?). I do find myself rooting for the MCs to succeed and find happiness together, which is obviously an important aspect for romantasy. Overall, was this an earth-shattering, mind-bending, terrific piece of literature? No. But was it the worst thing I've read this year? Also, no. This book has, to me, the bones of a great read & just needs a bit more to push it from an alright book to a great book. Overall ratings: Plot- 3.5⭐️ World building 3⭐️ Spice 2.5 🌶🌶 Main characters 4 ⭐️ Supporting characters 3.5⭐️

great book
Format: Kindle
I am really excited to meet the author at the book retreat this month. I really enjoyed this world that she built and most of the female main character Huntress is so awesome. She goes through a lot in this book and the ending; wow! I wouldn't have even guessed. I highly recommend everyone to read this book. I have been so lucky this year that almost all the books I have read have been, so far, 5 out 5 stars.

Fallen for the Fallen Angel – A Guilty Pleasure Worth Every Page
Format: Kindle
There’s something deeply irresistible about a dark academia or trial-based setting, a brooding and arrogant fallen angel, and a fierce heroine with enough sass to go toe-to-toe with him. Wings So Wicked is exactly that kind of book—and I devoured it in just a couple of days. To be fair, the plot isn’t groundbreaking. If you’re looking for something fresh and innovative in terms of storyline, this might not be it. But if your reader heart beats faster at the mere mention of enemies-to-lovers, jealousy-fueled banter, magical trials, betrayals, and forbidden tension—you’ll feel right at home. It’s like catnip for those of us with this particular weakness. The chemistry between the leads could have used a slightly slower burn to make the tension sizzle longer, but I still found myself completely invested in their dynamic. There are moments and phrases that feel a bit cheesy or underdeveloped, but honestly? I didn’t care. The vibes were exactly what I wanted. This book isn’t trying to reinvent the genre—it’s here to give readers like me what we crave: high-stakes magical drama, angsty romance, and the thrill of watching a badass girl and her brooding counterpart clash and spark. If that sounds like your kind of story, Wings So Wicked will hit the mark. Here’s hoping Book 2 turns up the heat and keeps the magic alive.

my new favorite book
Format: Kindle
Ok so I never write reviews but this book was so good I felt the need to write this. Firstly your introduced to Huntyr you see her closed off hard core badass than towards the end you see the most subtle change and growth it’s amazing and the enemies to friends to lovers was just perfect, AND THE TWIST AT THE END GOT ME GOOD! You see one spicy scene the whole book but it doesn’t even MATTER BECAUSE THE BOOK WAS THAT GOOD. I’ve read 85 books in 2023-2024 so far and I’m pround to say this is my all time favorite. I’m so excited to read more of Emily Blackwoods books, this was my first time reading one of hers and I’m glad I did because HOLY!! Well done Emily well done
