How Fast Do Comet Goldfish Breed

During their first few weeks you can expect your Comet to grow up to 50% each week. It will take them around 3-4 years to reach their full size.

How often do Comet goldfish breed?

It’s a fact that goldfish are ready to breed from 1-2 years old, but usually they breed best at 3 years. They spawn once a month from April to August, when the weather is warmer.

Are Comet goldfish easy to breed?

Breeding comet goldfish in the home aquarium is difficult and should generally only be done in outdoor ponds. If you do plan on breeding them in an aquarium, then a separate tank must be set up to separate the parents from the eggs. Like most cold-water fish, comet goldfish require a trigger to start spawning.
