sorry to hassle u but a goldfish of that type should get 8-10 inches-in a properly sized tank of at least 50g. the 8g is far too small for a goldfish (except for a temporary hospital tank). the fish will most likely be stunted within a year, and it doesn't deserve that. get it a bigger tank, and hopefully it will live to its potential of 10-15 years.
and, yes, it is very cute... too cute to be stunted
All goldfish get enormous. maximum fancies advance approximately 20-25cm long and commons and comets get 30cm long. that tank is a few distance too small yet i'm assuming you place them in that tank basically for the image and that they actually stay in a 30-50+ gallon tank or pond.
He looks fine but really is too big for that tank. If they're growth gets stunted it in irreversible and it would be a shame to lose a pretty fish for want of a larger tank.

It looks to be about 3 years old. A ryukin mixed with oranda perhaps. Tank is full of ammonia. If you had a more clear side-view pic I could tell you if its a boy or girl.
the tank looks dirty

healthy- yes
cute-yessss
age- i would say maybe a yr and half, so its not going to grow any more.
