monitor the parameters closely, keep as low as possible. use good quality food and frequent water change. pay more attention to the fish behaviour and growth.

The tails look really good from the side and top! The cheeks look more pronounced from the side then from the top, which I find strange. I guess it has to do with the skull? The wen is quite small even for a wee yap bloodline, isn't it? But all in all a good achivement! I'd wish I've kept mine for as long. Shame on me!

????? the rest of the factors i understand.. but eeehhhh ... low??
hmm i had always tot lower water levels have to do with development of a fish's swimming postures and tail development .. never knew it had to do with wen.

anyway.. hehe .. thanks for the feedback everyone. will explore further. 1 matter i wish to highlight is this dud seems to have a strange bone structure (dunno wat you guys call it .. the back??) then most other sideviews i see in the forum.. its so .. bloody broad!! this is a heavy dud i swear, when it splashes, it does it big time , not like any others that just do a few tail flips to get your hands wet.

color wise ... err... actually there are some improvements lah .. last time is a pale yellow.. not at least the yellow is more stronger. will do more abt the color.

cheers

I understand that keeping the parameters low and frequent water change to provide quality water for the goldfish. But isnt this providing an environment for good overall growth rate? I thought green water would provide a better environment for wen development (as illustrated by some of the posts). Anyway i just started green water so have not see result yet.

its not Miracle water, results don't come immediately, and it also depends on the volumn of greenwater. e.g. keeping the fish in a cup of greenwater doesn't helps wink.gif

Me too... and was about to counter the suggestion to keep in a "low" tank -- these are side-view ranchus afterall and the chinese farmers keep them in relatively deep ponds.

One 3 inch the other 4. Is it overcrowded?

Some questions on green water.

My water has turned green, not very intense (still can see my fishy clearly). My aquarium pharmaceutical ammonia test kit show high level, between 4 to 8 ppm. Is this normal? Also my green water is in the initial stage, i should contine to keep the PL light on right?

If the answer to the above questions is available somewhere pls refer.

Thanx in advance.
