growth rate of....???

[klmt]

I was wondering what was the growth rate of a common goldfish from about one inch. Also about how big do they get?

I know that by about three years of age a shubunkin goldfish will be 9-14 inches long and a comet goldfish will be nearly as long and a little bit wider...

thanks, now how many inches per month and what sizes do they start to slow down. I Just got 3 commons, one white and orange, one just plain orange, one orange with black fin tips. Also i got one comet that is orange with the tips of its tail white.

They can get up to two feet long as long as their living space is big enough. But most gold-fish get about 10''

I don't really think there are any formulas for how many inches a month a goldfish will grow, it all depends on proper tank maintenance and feeding procedures. Keep them very clean and well fed and you will have huge goldies in no time.
