I know that there are some available. Please be aware that there is quite a large difference between the Chinese Black Ranchu and the Thai Black Ranchu. Thai Black Ranchu are all black while the Chinese Counterpart often have yellow belly showin.

I know that I have seen some in fish shops in Tokyo but the prices are very pricey. The best large black ranchu (Comp Grade - 6 inches up) in Thailand cost about 20,000 baht only, which is about 60,000 yen or 800 SG dollars.
