I was googling and came across this unusual (to me) goldfish at a Japanese web site.

IPB Image

It has the head of a top-view ranchu but a butterfly tails. There's a dorsal fin on the ranchu-like body; I wonder how it looks from the side.

I can't read Japanese, but here's the page with more goldfishes I've never seen before.
