How can you tell the difference between a male and female goldfish before breeding season?
== == Sexing Goldfish outside of the breeding season is extremely difficult. In the breeding season males develop small white pimples (breeding tubercles) on their gill covers and along the edge of their front fins (pectoral fins). Females are generally more rounded and deeper in body shape as they fill with roe (eggs) and have a larger vent before the anal fin.
How do you know if your goldfish are girls or boys?
Firstly, sexing young and juvenile goldfish is virtually impossible, you have to wait until the fish reach breeding age (usually one year old). Secondly, sexing adult goldfish out of the breeding season is difficult, because the sexually distinguishing features only develop during the breeding season (in the spring time). That said, females may be deeper in the body than males.
Are there any differences between male and female goldfish?
In looks or behaviour outside of breeding season, no. During breeding season the female may get a bit fatter with eggs, and the male will get breeding stars on it's gill plates and sometimes along the pectoral fins.

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.
What do goldfish look like when mating season?
During breeding season the female may get a bit fatter when full of eggs, and the male will get breeding stars on it's gill plates and along the pectoral fins. These look like tiny white bumps.
