Giant Black 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

- pH: 6.0 to 8.0

Samples great, purchased product not
Style: Restorative Protective Cream-1.3 Fl Oz
My dermatologist recommended this cream after a laser procedure, and gave me some samples to take home. I found the thick, smooth cream calming and protective for my irritated skin. The zinc oxide leaves a whitish cast at first, which does tend to fade after it sinks in, but it could be problem if you have darker skin. Not an issue for me since I’m pale.
Because I liked the samples, I ordered two full-size tubes. Both arrived with the product inside completely separated. The texture was nothing like the samples. I opened the first tube and clear, watery liquid spilled everywhere. I quickly recapped it, shook and squeezed the tube as much as possible to try to re-emulsify the product, and it remained stubbornly separated, with chunky white paste suspended in thin liquid. I’ve thoroughly shaken the second tube and continue to hear the sloshing of thin liquid. So apparently once the cream has separated, it will not re-mix.
I don’t know what caused the unacceptable condition of the product—manufacturing variation, storage conditions prior to shipping, or conditions during shipment. Whatever it was, I would not buy this product in this way again. The samples were a five star product. The full size product I received was zero stars.

Helped calm my damaged skin barrier, but expect stinging on very raw skin
Style: Restorative Protective Cream-1.3 Fl Oz
I bought this because I severely damaged my skin barrier and needed something gentle that would help my skin calm down and heal. My skin was extremely sensitive, raw, irritated, tight, and honestly uncomfortable even with water touching it.
This did help, but I do want to mention that if your skin is VERY damaged or raw, there can be some stinging at first. I experienced that myself during the first few applications. The stinging didn’t last long for me, but I think it’s important to mention because people with damaged barriers are usually desperate for relief and can panic when products sting.
What ended up helping me most was using this as part of a simple barrier repair routine instead of using it alone.
What I personally did:
* Wet my face first with either water or Avène Thermal Spring Water so my skin was damp but not soaking wet
* Applied the Avène Cicalfate onto the damp skin
* At night, I sealed everything in with CeraVe Healing Ointment (Aquaphor would probably work too)
I repeated this every night before bed and sometimes during the day if I was staying home.
If I was leaving the house during the day, I would do the same steps but use sunscreen instead of sealing with ointment. I honestly think sunscreen is extremely important when your skin barrier is damaged and trying to heal because irritated skin feels even more sensitive when exposed to sunlight.
I used this day and night, very easy to use, and didn’t experience breakouts from it. The texture is thick but comforting once applied, especially when your skin feels dry and stripped.
Overall, I would buy this again. I don’t think it’s some overnight miracle product, but it genuinely helped my skin calm down and recover when my barrier was damaged. I personally didn’t notice any strong fragrance, which I appreciated since my skin was already extremely irritated. I also like how versatile this product is. Even though I originally bought it for barrier damage, I can see why people use it for irritation from retinol, over-exfoliating, dry patches, or skin that just feels compromised in general.

Holy Grail of Moisturizers
Style: Restorative Protective Cream-3.3 Fl Oz
I bought this after hearing a dermatologist on Instagram rave about this cream and now I see why. As someone who suffers from pretty severe eczema this is my go to holy grail for flair ups. Perfect for sensitive skin and can be used daily. It is very thick so provides a thick layer of moisture on your skin. I will say I have bought 2 sizes in this and the smaller size (1.3fl oz) did separate and had a liquid part that would come out. I have bought numerous tubes of the larger size (3.3fl oz) and never had an issue with separation with the larger size. I’m learning as I get older that more expensive does not mean better quality skincare. This is one that is not only affordable, but will also give you noticeable results. I have everyone in my whole family using this product!

Soothing Post-Laser!! Ideal for Aging Skin ~
I just had my first CO2 Laser treatment and once you get past the required use of occlusives (Aquaphor, Doctor Rogers Healing Balm, Vaseline etc.), I was searching for something lighter that allowed my skin to breath yet soothed the dry, itching discomfort. La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Gel was the answer! After laser treatment, you can experience discomfort for up to 10 days. This gel is super lightweight, spreads easily and is not greasy. A small amount easily covered my face and neck. I like the fact that it is fragrance free - I experienced zero irritation. I found the product extremely soothing and really sped up my recovery with dryness and itchiness. This product was more effective than the lotion I was given my the laser specialist! I already use La Roche-Posay facial cleanser and love it. I am adding this product to my skin care regimen even after my laser recovery is complete. Ideal if you are looking for an effective moisturizer that is lightweight and really works on dry/irritated skin.
