I had a moment to review some of my award winners from the last few years. Many thanks to the Goldfish Council for providing a venue to show goldfish!

Announcing my HOUSE FORMULA food for ranchu and fancy goldfish! This is a special formula I was introduced to while in Japan. It is a high quality food that is crafted in Japan. It's a small size pellet which is good for large and small goldfish alike. I've been testing it out for awhile now in order to make sure it meets my high standards for quality and ranchu health. Good news: it does and my ranchu LOVE it! https://ranchunotes.blogspot.com/p/food.html

Japanese Ranchu are often refered to as Top-View-Ranchu or TVR. This term is misleading because Japanese ranchu are graded from all sides, top, side and bottom views.

Since 2012 I have been breeding Japanese goldfish called Ranchu here in Bend, Oregon.

Hello and welcome to my ranchu page! I primarily post on Instagram but thought I should tie things together with a page too. Here I will be posting updates on my ranchu.
