I just received the October issue of Aquarium Fish Magazine and in their column "fishkidz" they mentioned a hybrid goldfish that does not grow over two inches. It sounded kind of skeptical to me, but do you guys have any information? I tried to google it, but nothing came up.

This is what the article said:
"A 2-gallon is much too small for any regular goldfish. You might want to consider a hybrid goldfish called "China Dolls." These fish are miniature goldfish that never get much bigger than 2 inches total length."

Ugg I don't like the sound of these!
Only thing google comes up with is a report of one growing just as big and fast as other goldfish.

*wonders why people can't just do the responsible thing and research fish properly before purchase*.

i cant figure out why people want a goldfish in a bowl anyway. never heard of this, but is it a rosie minnows, since it is gold, might be considered a goldfish.
