Pearlscale Goldfish

Pearlscale Goldfish, also known as ping pong goldfish, are an odd-looking variety of fancy goldfish that live in coldwater aquariums happily with other Fancy Goldfish. They are golf ball shaped with prominent scales, this makes them popular in the trade as they are very different to other fancy goldfish. 

Pearlscale goldfish are generally twin-tailed with very compact, rounded bodies. The fish takes its name from its nacreous scales, which have a raised centre outlined with darker pigment. The scales are arranged in rows and resemble pale-coloured pearls. This listing is for pearlscale goldfish of random colouration and sex, a mixture of orange, white and black patterning.

Can you keep Pearlscale Goldfish with other fancy goldfish?
Yes you can house Pearlscale, or ping pong goldfish with other varieties of goldfish. They also do very well with smaller coldwater fish, such as minnows or danios. Pearlscale goldfish are very slow swimmers, so care must be taken to ensure they are not out-competed for food by other faster-swimming tank inhabitants.

Are Pearlscale Goldfish more prone to disease?
Pearlscale goldfish are not as hardy as many of the other varieties of fancy goldfish, so care must be taken to house them adequately. The water must be pristine, as pearlscales can be more prone to stress-related bacterial diseases owing to their awkward size and movement, and unique protruding scales. As a slow-swimming variety of fancy goldfish, care must be taken to ensure they feed and are not out-competed for food.

Easy and simple: Exact Step-by-Step Guide to Reloading Your Balance
Reload type: One Time Reload
I found reloading my Amazon gift card balance much easier than expected. The process was simple and took about 5 minutes at most. Here are the exact steps to do it: ​Login: In the Amazon app or on Amazon.com, log in to your account. ​ Menu: Tap the 3 lines on the bottom right corner of your screen (next to Rufus, Amazon's AI). ​ Find Category: In the section highlighted "Shop by category," tap on Gifting & Registry (3rd option down in that section) and a drop-down menu will appear. ​ Select Gift Cards: On the drop-down menu, tap Gift Cards (first option). ​ Choose Your Action: "The Gift Card Shop" will appear. There you will have three options: "Redeem a gift card," "View your balance," and "Reload." ​ Start Reload: To add funds, tap Reload. ​ Select Type: Scroll down to "Add funds directly to your Amazon Gift Card balance" and tap which reload type you want (one-time, low balance auto-reload, or scheduled auto-reload). ​ Enter Amount: Choose your reload amount. The default is $25, but you can type in your own amount as well (the minimum amount is $5.00). ​ Finish: Tap the orange "Buy Now" tab. ***I used the Amazon app using the u i OneUI version 8.0 these Amazon app on Android version 16 (Baklava) on a Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. Others may have a slight variation of the menu setup on the Amazon app.***

Easy way to add balance
Reload type: One Time Reload
Reloading my Amazon gift card balance has been easy and convenient. I like using it when I want to keep a little money set aside for Amazon orders or make checkout quicker without thinking about which card I want to use. The process is straightforward, the balance shows up fast, and it has been reliable every time I have used it. It is also helpful for budgeting because I can add a set amount and then use that balance for regular purchases. Nothing complicated about it, which is exactly why I like it.

Monthly reload for Subscribe & Save Orders
Reload type: One Time Reload
Not a glamorous review, but a genuinely useful tip for Subscribe & Save users. I reload about $100 to my gift card balance once a month, a week or two before my S&S order processes. Amazon pulls each Subscribe & Save item as a separate transaction, which means 10+ individual charges hitting your bank account on before or on ship day. A headache for budgeting and a minor anxiety trigger if you're watching your account for unauthorized activity. Loading the balance first consolidates everything into one clean transaction. Your S&S order then pulls from the gift card balance rather than your card directly, and your bank statement stays tidy. The side benefit is built-in budget discipline. I set about $100 as my monthly Amazon ceiling - if my cart runs over, something gets pushed to next month. It's a simple system that keeps spending intentional without any extra effort. If you're a regular S&S user who wants cleaner finances and less ""wait, who charged this and what was that charge?"" moments, this is worth making a habit.

Great for Budgeting – Instant Balance and Easy to Use
Reload type: One Time Reload
I use Amazon’s gift card reload feature to plan my spending. It’s perfect when I know I want to make a purchase but prefer to set the funds aside first. I love that it’s immediate—no worries about pending charges or accidental spending from my card. It gives me peace of mind knowing that when I’m ready to buy, the balance is just sitting there, waiting. Pros: easy to use, instant balance update, helps with budgeting and avoiding overspending Cons: funds are locked into Amazon once reloaded, doesn’t count toward certain account requirements like review eligibility Overall, it’s a convenient and reliable way to manage spending on Amazon, especially if you like having control over your purchases.
