(I say vaugely, knowing nothing about breeding goldfish) but I feel sure it CAN be done because I've seen gorgeous images of adult fish that are those colors. I've been looking around on the web and I suspect if you paid a lot of money to someone from China you could get true blues, blacks and pandas that would keep their color.

But I only paid 6.99 each! I kind of knew from another discussion of goldfish color that they probably wouldn't stay black and white, but for now they are pandas and by the time they change they will be established pets and I will love them for who they are - not just for their looks if I remember I will update on if color changes. Well, having not read this thread before I got two super-cute little butterfly tail pandas not so long ago.
