Nice looking fish!
What are Watkins? Are they goldfish? Shubunkin?

They are a type of Goldfish. Usually just Red/white. No idea how they got the Calico, maybe a cross with a Shubunkin.

I have them in a 750 gallon above ground pond. Right they are with a White unknown Goldfish that we saw a petstore in a very small tank. I will be getting 4 regular Wakins and 3 Black Opal Shubunkins. I was overstocked with Koi and Goldfish. Just to make it easier we got rid of every fish except the White Goldfish.
