Baby bronze ryukin goldfish with curled gills.

The Curled-gill or Reversed-gill goldfish is not a variety, but a deformed cull of fancy goldfish that has been developed by skilled farmers enthusiasts. It owes its name from the out-turned appearance of its gill covers.[1][2] This fish in a picture is a Ryukin with curled gills.
