The Gold Goldfish is a harmless Critter. It is a rare, golden recolor of an ordinary Goldfish, with a 0.25*1/400 (0.25%) chance of spawning in place of the ordinary version.

As with all other gold critters, it can be caught with a Bug Net and sold for 10.

It is one of the few entities that can be detected by the Lifeform Analyzer or its upgrades.

Trivia

• Just like Goldfish, Gold Goldfish can walk on land if it is raining.

The Bestiary entry for the Gold Goldfish: "Rarely, critters are found coated entirely in gold! Shopkeepers will pay handsomely for these, or you can show them off in cages!"
