Ranchu gold fish

Ranchu gold fish are intriguing and distinctive fish. They lack a dorsal fin and instead develop a wen, which is a massive head growth.

This makes it harder for individuals to regulate their bodies when swimming, slowing them down and even necessitating rest breaks throughout the day to replenish their energy.

Ranchu gold fish despite being one of the most tranquil goldfish, they are restricted by their morphology. Due to their excessively stocky and rounded body forms, they are more prone to swim bladder conditions than the majority of other slim-bodied goldfish.

They are not the conventional goldfish seen in most pet stores, and they are typically purchased from an established breeder that uses superior genetic stock for body type and general health.
