AnswerWhile breeding, male goldfish have white spots on their gills; the females get plump and the male drives the female rubbing her with his spots.

Goldfish are egg scatterers. The males drive/chase the females who dash amongst the plants close to the water surface scattering their sticky ova(eggs). The following males also scatter their milt (sperm) and so the ova become fertilized. The fertilized ova develop and remain stuck to the plants until the fry become free swimming. It is best to either collect the ova or remove the adult fish once spawning has finished. Otherwise the adults will devour any ova they can find.
gold fish mate by going in a corner in the tank and get real close and stay there for a while

Goldfish may only grow to sexual maturity with enough water and the right nutrition. Most goldfish breed in captivity, particularly in pond settings. Breeding usually happens after a significant temperature change, often in spring. Males chase females, prompting them to release their eggs by bumping and nudging them.

The last answer is wrong in so many ways, the male presses agenst the female to release her eggs, then the male releases his sperm and furtalizes the eggs, although the male might eat all the eggs

Either the female goes over some aquatic plants with the male following, or the male pushes her over some. The female releases eggs and the male fertilizes them, as most fish do.

How do black moors reproduce?

Spring time is the breeding season for goldfish. During this time female goldfish will put on weight, and male goldfish will develop breeding tubercles (white dots on the head and gills). Goldfish may chase each other around the habitat in an effort to find a mate. When a male and female goldfish choose a mate the female will release her eggs onto the breeding ground (such as an aquatic plant, or breeding mop). The male goldfish will then release a cloud of Milt (sperm). The milt thus fertilizes the eggs, and goldfish fry begin to form within the eggs. The goldfish eggs will continue to develop for several days until they eventually hatch into fry. The fry will then grow into fully developed goldfish overtime. These goldfish will eventually reproduce, and thus continue the life cycle.
