BUY OUR SELECTED RED GOLDFISH! 
NO POOL IS COMPLETE WITH WATER PLANTS ALONE! 
Goldfish—especially our SELECTED RED GOLDFISH—add a 
dash of color and an interest to the pool that is absolutely indispensa- 
ble. Furthermore, GOLDFISH ARE NEEDED TO EAT MOS- 
QUITO LARVAE which are present in all outdoor pools. Be sure to 
include at least a dozen of these beautiful housekeepers! 
Selective breeding for many years has resulted in this new strain of 
RED GOLDFISH with highly developed tails. Cur fish are really 
RED and not yellow like those that one sees in the 5 and 10 cent 
stores. 
Our RED GOLDFISH are very hardy and can be left in the pool 
all winter. It is not necessary to feed fish in the outside pool in winter.

CAUTION: Do not put fish in new cement pool until pool has been filled and drained two times. Alkali from cement might kill fish. 
SPAWNING: Grow baby goldfish in your pool! Watching the baby fish grow is highly fascinating. Order fish early if you wish them to 
spawn in your pool. Be sure to include either (1) The oxygenating plant Marestail or (2) 
lay their eggs on. We especially recommend Marestail for fish spawn especially well in it and its bright, green, 
tremendously to the pool. Order both, preferably.
