The Comet goldfish is a single-tailed goldfish which breed was developed in the United States from the common goldfish by a government worker, Hugo Mulertt. It is one of the first domesticated sea creatures.
Its name was given thanks to the unique tail appearance that resembles a flying comet.
The comet goldfish is commonly bred on fish farms in many parts of the world and is offered for sale to aquarists. Due to its inexpensive prices, they may also be used as bait or as prizes in carnivals.
