About Lionhead Goldfish

Lionhead Goldfish is a cross between a goldfish and a cheffish. Therefore, this goldfish has a head with several bumps. In the 17th and 18th centuries, this type of goldfish was introduced and bred in China and Japan. The breeding results in Japan produced lion head goldfish with a rounded back, modified tail, and minor head growth size.
