Simply White Options

[goldrush]

Simply white marks my centennial (100 topic started…yeah) topic posts for RG today with much influence coming from poster of fish GA083 at the Academy I got the uncanny feeling he belongs to one of my CULL CULT member by virtue of his presentation.Anyway my presentation has no bearing to any tooth whitening procedure or product marketed for tooth whitening as the title implies.
I just like to show some of my whites and perhaps share their upbringing and shortcomings in their keeping.

The first post shows two of my very junior members measuring 2 and1/2 inch across their max. length at present. When I got them about a month back in Sept 2005 they were barely 2 inch in length. Growth rate is nothing to crow about. But I chose fish with nice smooth curve, angled tail without much head growth.Ratio of its length to height should be longer to allow fill up in the future.Rotundant body should be avoided at this stage as growth maybe impeded if such body structure is selected. These are however only my personal opinion.

The second post shows one of my self bred ranchu which has turned one recently.If you had followed through my post perhaps this piece will bring back some memories of its development.The headgrowth has been pathetic throughout compared to its colored siblings.Simply white shows somehow slower growth and diminished headgrowth.

The first pic shows it around Jan 2005


The second was taken in March
