11. Interesting Facts Page Goldfish (Carassius auratus) originated in eastern Asia about 1600 years ago. They are the result of selective breeding of green/brown carp found in the streams of southern China. They were developed first by the Chinese, then later the Japanese, with each country producing slightly different features in the fish. The Chinese exaggerated the more unusual and attractive characteristics, such as protruding eyes and double tails. Young domesticated goldfish are usually an olive colour, and they change to adult coloration when they are about 1 year old or more. A fish's ultimate colour is strongly influenced by genes, its diet and the chemical composition of the water in which it is reared. Black is the most difficult colour to breed and pure jet-black goldfish are rare. They are considered highly desirable by hobbyists. It has been claimed that the gene for telescope (protruding) eyes is linked to the gene for all-over black colouring.
