Description

Description: Ranchu goldfish belong to the “fancy” goldfish family, which means they have been selectively bred for generations to give them specific traits. You cannot find these fish in the wild. They are uniquely cute with their helmet, egg-shaped body, lack of dorsal fins and humpback posture but also strangely elegant in how they swim.  It is known as the “king of goldfish.”
