Lionhead Ranchu –

The Lionhead Goldfish is an egg-shaped variety of goldfish.

Unlike the Common Goldfish and the Shubunkins, which have a long, slender body. The Lionhead is also one of the more rounded or egg-shaped fancy goldfish

The amount of head growth differs for each individual fish. For some, the broadhead, except for its eyes, mouth and nostrils, can become completely covered with the fleshy growth. This can sometimes even impede its vision.
