Blackout Comet

You might not find too much about a Blackout Comet from a Google search. Probably because there’s not a lot that has been posted about it. Not much is known about this type of goldfish. We do know however, that it is an Israeli breed, coming out of the oldest breeding farm in Israel, Hazorea Aquatics.

It is a new type of goldfish and as such, the breeder remains tight lipped about the genesis of this particular goldfish. And understandably so. The hypothesis is that the selective cross-breeding program involved Black Moor and Comet goldfish.

You might come across a black comet from time to time, but it isn’t a Blackout Comet. Some pond or tank keepers might be excited to find they have a black-colored comet, but then become disappointed to watch it fade and eventually turn red or gold.

That’s because ordinarily the black coloration is not permanent, and is usually as a result of “ammonia burn” that happens in transit. That is not true of a Blackout Comet. Thanks to the selective breeding, it will remain black for the duration of its life.
