Lei, your reach is certainly DEEP in the community! I have a question regarding the 'base' colour Pan is attempting to control. It's my understanding that this blue base calico is actually the not a pigment in the scales themselves but located in the tissues below the scales. Is that correct? It appears blue but is actually black pigment that just appears blue when viewed through the tissue and scales above. Do we know what the pigments purpose is playing in these deeper tissues? Does it have a function we may not be aware of currently and that manipulating these tissues may wave downstream effects we may not foresee? Might this be of concern ... ? I am just playing the devil's advocate here; I truly LOVE this new ranchu type Pan has had the vision to create and is now refining. It is a great innovation and think this is the kind of breed interventions that we both can get behind! I hope you can put a little bee in his bonnet and see if you can convince him that the fish needs a bigger/wider tail not a smaller one since the body changes he envisioned needs to be more balanced and functional tail that allows the fish more graceful propulsion with less movement ... like a cow in the grassy meadows swatting the fly from its body on a lazy humid summers day ... the swatting isnt frenetic but effortless.
Bruce, you are absolutely right on goldfish color! Correct, there is no blue color at all. Like you said, blue color is dermins color under nacreous scales. Goldfish does have black melanophore. I guess Pan’s work basically removed the half-transparent scales, which make the blue base. All the cow ranchu should have normal scales. That is how he got rid of blue base. As for the body shape, different people has different opinions. I can see where you come out the idea. the long tail for strong propel. Before the cow ranchu, Pan developed short-tail Ranchu. Really cute and popular in Market. He simply made the color and tail attributes together to get cow ranchu
GoldfishLover.67 probably eliminate the transparent scales. If Transparent scales are still there, the blue base will show up. The black pigments are more concentrated to certain areas then become black patches
Small tail Ranchu is Pan's main work earlier, this has become the property of Chinese Ranchu, very hot hear. And I think small tail forces fish to move harder, which shaped a cowly-strong body.
Thank you for your feedback. I noticed lots of friends here requested more info about Chinese goldfish farms and their breeding techniques. I will add more videos about this topics
Getting into an Asian Arowana territory in terms of price. The effort it takes to cull thousands upon thousands of fry at different stages to get to a near imitation of a milk cow.......so much work!
thank you, Michael. That was the price back in 2018. With more and more cow ranchus are produced from Fuzhou, the price may drop. All about supply vs demand
@@GoldfishCorner usually you don't know the Farm, it is difficult to have an AA or AAA quality in Spain. If you know a Spanish breeder please tell me. Thank you
Henry, thank you for your warm-hearted words. I wish I could have more hours so I can speed up my process. I plan to release another goldfish guru talk on Chinese Ranchu next week or two
Hi Professor Lei, I would like to visit this event. Interesting information, I understand a bit of Spanish, there was a lot of work by Mr Pan to create these color selections, in particular I was struck by the one inspired by the black and white cow. Great job and video as always. I wish you a good weekend.
@@MarcoIsidori Thank you, buddy. I have been quiet on CZcams since last Dec due to other high priorities in my life. Now I am back and hopefully able to create more content. Good luck Marco!
So basically creating a more durable and lasting black and white pattern. I have a feeling and I hope that Cow will eventually be the new face of Panda. A true panda is really a black twelve- point and are one of the hardest colors to produce. This market's panda is just a color changing phase, with 5% guarantee that it will be a sturdy, close to permanent look on a specimen- and that sucks. Today's pandas will always turn into "tricolor' (with even less black) becase the market can't admit that the black is really fading. Underneath it's just a white, red or red and white fish. I love the science that went behind this, using calico fish as a base and eliminating and developing certain colors to produce something new. This fact has been very successful for Nacreous Scale colors, like Sakura where the blue and black has been bred out. However it's not uncommon to see these with few black streaks and scales. Also the black on Nacreous fish are more stable than those of metallic scales, beause it's meant to be there in patches or spots- Calico, Kirin. This will mean a very attractive, bold and playfull appearance for the Cow. By eliminating some colors of a usual calico, it will make room for what is really desired. The Cow Ranchus I have seen sold really just look like plain calico Ranchus with excessive black, so I hope we will get a more correct and stable with just black and white in the near future. For me, this new Cow color can even go without a red head.
Very insightful comments. I think cow ranchu is the prerequisite for pandas 🐼. The next step is to develop the location of black patches on the right spots, like a panda. One thing missing in Pan’s video is about the durability of the black-red color pattern. I am not sure how long these black and white pattern can hold. Conversing his reputation, I guess Pans color pattern should be long is not permanent. Like he said at the end, one year his farm only got 7 real cow ranchu.
@@GoldfishCorner would he need to eliminate or reduce or minimise the presence of the metallic scales in what was essentially calico fish? There is an American breeder of shubunkins in Georgia or the Carolinas that has developed a series of new shubunkins that took the opposite approach ... they have maximised the presence of metallic scales to some very beautiful results. It might be worth looking at their approach as it may hold some clues. I'll follow up with their CZcams channel name shortly.
Very interesting!! Personally I think Mr.Pan was being a bit of a salesman BUT it very interesting never the less. I never saw a cow with an orange head. LOL
In the video...he did said it looks close to the cow pattern they trying to achieve tho. And thats not the 100% cow like ranchu yet. But still the price for that fish is 7000 yuan.
Calico has five colors: red, yellow, black, blue and white. Cow Ranchu should only have black patches on white base, red Wen is a bonus! White base is the key of cowchu. fake cow Ranchu may have blue base color.
Hi Lei, I have somthing to ask... One of my pearlscale goldfish has developed a red patch on his body and he's losing a bit of scales too. Other than this he's active. Do u have any idea about what is it?
Is the red patch just a color change? Do you see any extra lime on the patch? If just color change, no worries. The re-grown scales will not be the thick pearlscales.
This is an oranda goldfish I bought from a pretty bad fish store. It originally had a bone sticking out, but I think it fell off. He/she is missing a huge chunk of its body, and I already have them in a quarantine tank with melafix, aquarium salt, and parasite remedy. If there anything else I need to do for them? The guy there refused to tell me what happened to the goldfish. czcams.com/video/jKPvItbUsMc/video.html
omg, this could be a really nice red Oranda. It has really good wen growth, Goosehead type of Wen. I did not see any further infection or white fungus. I think you did a good sanitization. Pay attention to its rot fins and wounds. If it get infected, please use Cotten tip with hydra dioxide to clean any wound or infection. The fins will re-grow
Okay thanks! And I totally agree, it’s a shame about the injury, it’s a beautiful fish. Luckily the owner of the store gave me some free aquarium salt (I already had some but I was running out). Thanks for the advice! I’ll make sure to keep you updated!
@@GoldfishCorner is there any certified reseller in Indonesia i see there is a lot of not-so-cow ranchus seller here, that selling the blue base one or calico and claimed as a pure cow. Thx in adv.
It was pretty late, but I think I’m going to buy some medicine at the store today. I think there might be another one on his belly, but it’s a lot deeper in and I was unable to get it off. Do you know what medicine would work best?

Many friends here may hear about or have Pan’s Ranchu. Let’s listen Mr. Pan, 潘国诚先生, talking about his story developing the famous Milk Cow Ranchu.
So kind to let us see his wonderful fish
Mr. Pan is a doer. I don't see him doing that much lecture. This video may be the one. Thank you, William
Hello Mr. Pan.....what a great video sir....these fish are so amazing and beautiful!
Not only is that adorable fish show champion, he is also champion of my heart. So cute.
Well said
Thank you so much!!!
Love it! If possible, I think we would also like to see his farm to learn how he breeds, grooms, culls, and feeds his ranchu.
