Giant Chocolate Lionhead Ranchu Grade AA Carassius AuratusOverview
The Ranchu Goldfish, often heralded as the "King of Goldfish," is a charming and distinctive breed known for its unique, egg-shaped body and absence of a dorsal fin. With a broad, rounded back and a deep, curved belly, Ranchus come in a variety of colors, including red, white, and black. This breed is cherished for its elegant swimming style and friendly demeanor, making it a beloved addition to any freshwater aquarium.
Origin
Ranchu Goldfish have their origins in China, but they were further developed and refined in Japan, where they gained significant popularity. This breed has a rich history dating back centuries and is considered a symbol of luck and prosperity in many cultures.
Feeding
Ranchu Goldfish are omnivores and thrive on a diet that includes both plant-based and protein-rich foods. High-quality goldfish pellets or flakes should form the basis of their diet, supplemented with vegetables like peas and spinach, as well as occasional treats of live or frozen foods such as brine shrimp or bloodworms. Overfeeding should be avoided to prevent water quality issues and health problems.
Tank Mates
Ranchus are peaceful and social fish that do well with other goldfish varieties of similar size and temperament, such as Orandas and Lionheads. However, it's crucial to avoid housing them with aggressive species or fin-nippers that might harm their delicate fins and body.
Aggression
Ranchu Goldfish are known for their gentle and serene nature. They exhibit little to no aggression towards tank mates, making them excellent community fish in a species-appropriate setup.
Experience Level
Due to their specific care requirements and sensitivity to poor water conditions, Ranchu Goldfish are best suited for intermediate to advanced aquarists. Maintaining pristine water quality and a well-aerated tank is crucial for their health and wellbeing.
Water Parameters

- Water changes should be performed regularly to keep the environment clean and stable, as Ranchus are susceptible to health issues in poor water conditions.

Not as good as I expected
When it first came, the box fell apart as I was taking it out, and a lot of some kind of dirt or sand kept falling out all over my table and floor. I had the take the entire thing apart and thoroughly wash it.
After drying age reassembling it, I tried it on my portafilter that came with my Breville Barista Express, but, somehow, it doesn't always make the tamping level. You would think with the ridge that rests on the side of the portafilter that it would force it to remain level, but, somehow, it doesn't, at least not consistently. It also has varying lengths (heights, or depths), and a single spring tension, so you may still over tamping or under-tamp. I was expecting it would have a censor that would just detect once it reached 30 lbs of force and cut off after that, similar to a torque screwdriver, but that's not what this is.
I'll still give it 3 stars because, despite the problems mentioned above, it at least produces some amount of consistency, even if that isn't measurable; but, I can't give it 5 stars because of those issues mentioned above.

This is the one.
Size: 58.3mm, Color: Black
As an el Supremo Coffee Geek, I've wasted money on lots of different tampers. Save your money and buy this one or it's equivalent. This thing is heavy duty, solid, well-made, self-leveling, tamps at 30 pounds and is fool-proof even for fools. Also, it's a palm tamper meaning more fun and more satisfying to use as you prep the puck for your morning buzz. Buy it. You will thank me.

Super easy to use and takes the guess-work out of getting even pressure on the grounds
Size: 58.3mm, Color: Black, Size: 58.3mm, Color: Black
I have been using a hand tamper for many years and have a good idea of the pressure I am applying to the grounds in the portafilter. I honestly considered spring tampers to be a bit silly. But this tamper really does take the guess-work out of pressing the coffee grounds. The shroud helps guide the press so that pressure is applied even and flat across the surface. With the manual tamper, there will be some play when pressing, or some unevenness in pressure. This is especially true when cranking out many espressos during a breakfast party with friends. Having the spring tamper makes quick work of turning out a lot of coffees with consistency.
There are no instructions for taking this tamper apart to clean inside, and you may not really need to do that very often. After each use, just pull back the shroud (the black piece that moves up and down) and wipe off the tamper (the shiny steel part). This will help prevent grounds from working their way inside. If you do want to take it apart, it’s easy. Pull back the shroud and unscrew the tamper. It will come apart into three pieces. Wipe the pieces off and reassemble. Super quick and easy.
This tamper is very heavy. My scale shows 656 g (about a pound and a half). It fits the portafilter exactly, with no slop. Just place on top of grounds and press!. Don’t even worry about pressure, just push down all the way. Overall I had fun using this tamper versus my manual one. And since I make myself a cappuccino very early in the morning, I don’t have to be very awake to get a good pack on the grounds and get my coffee fast!
