Lionhead And Ranchu Difference Options

[stan]

Hi, i just found this web site,

I posted above topic on above at arofanatics, thought i would post it here to get better response.

What is the difference between a Lionhead and a ranchu?

Lionhead-- much head growth, short stout body, small tail.

Ranchu- less head growth, longer body, open tail.

Or
Liohead is for side view,
Ranchu for top view,

Are these 2 species of fish or the same fish bred differently to have different attributes.[COLOR=orange][SIZE=7]


someone pls enlighten,

The article you pointed out is, I believe, originally written by a belgium ranchu breeder Geert Coppens.

You can find the article here titled "Ranchu standaard english". There's also a dutch language version, hence I believe Mr. Coppens wrote it although the thai web site claims they have the copyright.

It's a Apple computer's compressed file which I believe you can use Winzip to expand (or use Stuffit Expander for PC)

I should point out this article refers to Japanese Ranchu (which is different from the topic we're discussing here.)
