Can I keep Celestial Eye Fancy Goldfish in a garden pond?

Celestial Eye fancy goldfish, like most fantail goldfish, are not typical goldfish, and require a more temperate environment than common goldfish. They will not thrive or survive easily in extreme cold, and ideally need a temperature of 16°C or above, so are more suited to indoor aquaria kept at room temperature.

You can keep them in outdoor ponds during the warmer spring and summer months, but it is recommended that they are brought back indoors when the colder weather arrives. Be aware that their compromised visual spectrum and slow-swimming temperament may make them easier prey to predators if kept outdoors.
