This girl was bought a week ago in St.Kilda Aquarium, Melbourne for 110 $AUD.
According to shop owner it was imported from Japan. Body length (without tail) is 8 cm. I see kink on the back, what else do you see? Any comments are highly appreciated.   |

Very poor specimen calico ranchu; looks stunted judging from the size of its tail and eyes.I doubt that its from Japan; more likely from China or Thailand.
Sorry for my frank comments. Frankie |

Sorry for my frank comments. Frankie From my understanding Japan is not on AQIS list of approved exporting country for goldfish so if an Aussie LFS says their goldfish is from Japan never believe it. In Aussie you can get a Chinese AA grade ranchu for $120 |
