English Dictionary & Thesaurus *Goldfish, Carassius auratus (small golden or orange-red freshwater fishes of Eurasia used as pond or aquarium fishes) *Goldfish, like all cyprinids, lay eggs. They produce adhesive eggs that attach to aquatic vegetation. The eggs hatch within 48 to 72 hours, releasing fry large enough to be described as appearing like "an eyelash with two eyeballs". Within a week or so, the fry begin to look more like a goldfish in shape, although it can take as much as a year before they develop a mature goldfish color. *Goldfish can only grow to sexual maturity if given enough water and the right nutrition.* *Regards,* *ChrisA.* *www.productselected.com* English Dictionary & Thesaurus *Goldfish, Carassius auratus (small golden or orange-red freshwater fishes of Eurasia used as pond or aquarium fishes) *Goldfish, like all cyprinids, lay eggs.

Goldfish can start reproducing when they are around one year old, although optimal breeding age is typically between 2-4 years. The reproductive maturity of a goldfish also depends on factors such as their size and environment.

I have heard the average life of a goldfish can run 25 years. I have heard that a goldfish once lived to the age of 41.
32 years old. Probably.
