Just want to find out or get views from fellow hobbyist. How big or long must a ranchu be, before it is considered as a giant ranchu?

Never heard of a giant ranchu.Where did you get that connotation.
As for koi we are often mesmerised by the term jumbo koi but again that is rather relative than absolute as many sellers coined it to enhance the value of their fish especially where their parent fish are concerned.There is no numerical yardstick to attain to be branded as "giant" or jumbo but just another adjective to express its majestic physique(size,girth and length)I suppose.

Call it Giant, awsome or Jumbo. The term is not important. Just want views as to what is the defination/views for the use of these terms to describe such ranchus.

Would a 6 inches ranchu be considered as such?
What about an 8 inches ranchu?
