What makes Thai Ranchu Short Tail Tigers unique?
Thai Ranchus are known for their compact, deep-bodied shape, short tails, and prominent wen (head growth). The Tiger coloration features a mix of bold patterns and striking hues, making each fish unique. -
What should I feed my Thai Ranchu Short Tail Tiger?
Offer a high-quality diet of goldfish pellets along with treats like bloodworms, daphnia, and brine shrimp. Occasional blanched vegetables such as peas or spinach support digestion and wen development. -

- Nitrate: Below 20 ppm

-
What tank size is recommended for this fish?
A 40-gallon tank is the minimum recommended for a single Thai Ranchu Short Tail. A larger tank may be needed for multiple goldfish to ensure proper water quality and swimming space. -
Can Thai Ranchu Short Tail Tigers live with other fish?
Yes, they thrive with other slow-swimming fancy goldfish, such as Orandas, Lionheads, and other Ranchus. Avoid housing them with fast or aggressive fish that may outcompete them for food. -
How do I acclimate my Thai Ranchu Short Tail to its new tank?
Float the sealed bag in the aquarium for 15-20 minutes to equalize temperature. Slowly add small amounts of tank water into the bag every 5 minutes before gently releasing the fish. -
What health issues should I watch for?
Common concerns include swim bladder issues, wen infections, and Ich. Maintain good water quality, provide a balanced diet, and perform regular water changes to prevent health problems.

FAQs
Please read our FAQs page to find out more.
"What You See is What You Get" collection?
With our "What You See is What You Get" collection, you can view the exact fish you'll be receiving. Each fish is photographed individually, so you know exactly what you're purchasing before it arrives at your door.
Do you offer a live arrival guarantee?
Yes! We offer a 100% live arrival guarantee. Our fish are shipped directly from our collections with care, and we stand behind their quality. If your fish arrive in poor condition, please contact us within 24 hours with a photo, and we’ll provide a replacement or refund, as per our terms and conditions.
What is the Direct from Farm collection?
The Direct from Farm collection is our preorder system where you can select fish directly from our farm in Thailand. Because we carefully source each fish, this process takes a little longer—approximately 2 weeks for the fish to arrive from Thailand and another week for quarantine before being shipped to you. This ensures that your fish are healthy and acclimated before they reach your aquarium.
How do I care for my new fish once they arrive?
When your fish arrive, it’s important to acclimate them gradually to your tank’s water temperature. Ensure your aquarium is fully cycled and that water parameters (temperature, pH, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels) are stable. If you need any tips on setting up your tank or caring for your fish, feel free to reach out!
