Start of my Ranchu Adventure
 

1st time into keeping ranchus.
A couple bought from YF yesterday.
Still abit shy.
Btw, I'm using a eheim 2026 with outflow pointed upwards. Ranchus don't like high flowrates? Should I get double taps to reduce the flowrate?

yes bro....u must get the taps to reduced the current...ranchu dont like fast flowing water.Nice n cute svr bro.Pump them kaw kaw with saki hikari green pack for grow n purple pack for colour developement.

2 nice potential pieces. I like the body shape of the pc on the right in the 2nd pic. :)

I see you are using 2x1x1 tank? I would suggest a bigger tank (or bigger plastic tub) from the start to provide ample space for growth.

Last but not least, it wont be 2 pieces only for long :D

Will go buy the saki. Fed lionhead they ignore. Bloodworm also ignore.

Starting only :D
Thinking of getting a tub but abit wasted to keep SVR in a tub?

eng eng can use hand scoop them sayang them mah :p

actually for ranchus dont have to keep in too deep water, so i prefer tub :)

Nice buffaloes! Welcome to the world of ranchu! :)

exams over yet? hand itchy? :p

U feed directly the next day after your purchased or after a few days? Goldfishes tend to get stressed easily especiallly the shipment just arrived and the fishes haven settle down yet at the place then been selected and purchased by customer on that day and bringing back home. This 2 transition within a day will caused the fish to be stressed, give them another 2 days or 3 days more before feeding them again. I see there is other fishes inside best is remove them else they will be gone if it fit the goldfish mouth upon it stable.

Above juZ my 1 cents opinion. :)

Nice pair to start.. once stable everything also hoot:D
