Kamil Vanko - Aranyhalakat ​tartunk
Az ​akváriumi halfajták "ranglistáján" a közönséges és a fátyolfarkú aranyhalak kezdettől fogva megkülönböztetett helyet foglalnak el. Az aranyhal tartásáról szóló első információk az egyik legjelentősebb kínai dinasztia, a Sung-dinasztia uralkodásának idejéből (1960-1279) származnak. Később az aranyhalak átterjedtek Japánba is, majd a nagy utazó Marco Polo jóvoltából az európai kontinensre is eljutottak. Nagyon közkedveltek voltak XV. Lajos francia király udvarában is. Napjainkban a fátyolfarkú aranyhalak szinte az egész világon elterjedtek, mivel nemcsak akváriumban, hanem mesterséges tavakban is tarthatók. Az Aranyhalakat tartunk című könyvecskéből megtudhat az olvasó mindent, amit az akváriumi halak e fajtájának tartásáról, azaz megfelelő táplálásukról, szaporodásukról, ápolásukról, a megfelelő akváriumi növényekről és a fátyolfarkú aranyhalak egyes változatairól tudni kell.
