The meteor goldfish is considered the rarest breed of
anal fin in its position.[4] The other fins of the meteor goldfish are elongated, and it is a competent swimmer despite its lack of a tail. Few swim like other normal goldfish and few swim straight ahead like a rocket, the rocket swimming being rarer. The meteor is also one of the hardest to breed, as they can be very weak, and in low temperatures sicken easily.[5]
