Guest Kayla's Goldfish Posted July 19, 2008 Awww! I want a Ranchu! I'm actually going to look for one or two for my upgraded tank that seems empty now 'cause it's so big! I want about two or three more fish and I'm hoping to add some new species of goldfish, I already have two black moores, a fantail, and a Oranda but I really want a ranchu and ryukin. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
