goldfish anatomy?

gf just change color.. usually they get paler. altho sudden all over paleness can be
due to being put in light colored surroundings, or stress. Ingrid

Lateral line is a sensory device that detects pressure changes in the water
they use this to detect if predators are near by.

thank you!

next: why are the silver fish's face and gills going pale gold? and why
does the fantail have different gill coverings (I'm sure that isn't a
technical term) to the others? (they seem to have an extra couple of mm
of very thin "frill").

Curiosity killed the cat. I hope it's not too irritating for everyone
else.
