New Baby Red Cap Oranda

Last night I moved the comet out and bought a "Red Cap Oranda" to put in my 26 gallon tank. Yay!

This guy was one of the last two red-capped ANYTHING in the store, and as a family was getting their 6 comets to put in two bowls, (which made me a little sad.  Learning so much about goldfish is opening my eyes to just how much abuse they get just because of how cheap they are) I stood next to the red caps, quickly "gauging" their health.  (Basically whether they had ich or not and if they're swimming right)  I eventually got my fish, talked to it, headed home, and put it in my tank.
