Regular Member sandtiger Posted May 25, 2006 Regular Member Share Posted May 25, 2006 Monday was my birthday and for it I got just enough cash to buy a 75g tank. I upgraded my sunfish and bullhead into the new 75g and that left the 55g free for the goldfish. My gf got me two little ranchus. Here they all are in there new home. I never thought I would own goldfish without dorsal fins but these guys are adorable. Then again, If you asked me a year ago I would have told you I would never devote a 55g to goldfish. My question is...what will the ranchus look like when they are older? I have never had experiance with these guys and I know a lot of goldfish change color. What about these guys?

Regular Member d_golem Posted May 25, 2006 Regular Member Share Posted May 25, 2006 Congrats on your new ranchus, sandtiger! I'm not sure if they will change colour or not, but they sure need a lot of fattening up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member JenW Posted May 25, 2006 Regular Member Share Posted May 25, 2006 Wow - that's a great present (and a belated Happy Birthday). Your fish look lovely... I have a baby ranchu the same bronzed gold. It will be interesting to see what colour he will end up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member sandtiger Posted May 25, 2006 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 25, 2006 Thanks everyone, glad you like them. JenW, where did you get your lionhead? My vvvv had a ton of these, all the same color. They weren't selling very fast so the price dropped from $13.00 eatch (I think) to $3.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member sandtiger Posted May 28, 2006 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 28, 2006 Yeah, they may quite possably be one of the cutest fish in the world, I never liked that they didn't have a dorsal fin but the cuteness makes up for it.
