Golden White Cloud

Golden White Cloud is a beautiful golden-coloured form of the popular White Cloud Mountain Minnow (Tanichthys albonubes). Its rich golden colouring makes this peaceful little schooling fish a striking addition to both aquariums and outdoor water features.

Golden White Clouds are remarkably adaptable and tolerate a wide range of temperatures, making them suitable for heated or unheated aquariums as well as suitable outdoor ponds and water features. They are peaceful community fish and are best kept in a group, where they display their natural schooling behaviour and the males show off their fins in impressive displays to rival one another.

Easy to care for and not particularly fussy about water conditions, Golden White Clouds readily accept most standard aquarium fish foods. Their hardiness, peaceful nature and attractive golden colour make them an excellent choice for beginner and experienced fish keepers alike.

Receiving Your Fish

When your fish arrive, open the package and check them promptly.

It is normal for fish to be stressed or less active after their journey. Allow them time to settle and acclimatise gradually to their new environment.

Do not immediately release newly arrived fish into your pond or aquarium.  Gradually acclimatise the fish to the water in their new environment so they can adjust to differences in temperature and water conditions.

To begin, float the sealed transport bag on the surface of your pond or aquarium for 5–10 minutes  to allow the temperature of the water in the bag to gradually adjust.

Important Information About Live Fish

Live fish are living animals and their appearance can naturally vary.

Golden White Clouds may vary slightly in size, shape and intensity of colour  depending on age, growth and individual fish. The fish pictured are representative of the type of fish supplied and may not be the exact fish you receive.

For the health and wellbeing of your fish, please ensure your aquarium or pond is established, appropriately sized and has suitable water quality before ordering.

Please ensure someone is available to receive your live fish delivery. We recommend having your pond or aquarium fully prepared before placing your order so your fish can be safely acclimatised as soon as they arrive.
