Firstly sorry about my lousy photo skills.
A grade Thai ranchu (according to the tank label). I think this is also a TVR reject based on the wen shape. 3 inches (8 cm) long from nose to tip of tail. First non-local (non Australian-bred) ranchu I bought. Price AU$30 (of course quite expensive but what can you do if u live in OZ). What do you guys think? And what can I do to improve this ranchu to become a good mature SVR? (apart from fattening it up of course)   |

Hello Steve
What an interesting finding  I'm not too sure of what your fingerlings may have died of.But this maybe a case of steatitis,a yellow fat disease which occurs when fed exclusively of aquatic products or related species of high fat content in which Vit E seem to be lacking in such a diet.Try google steatitis for more details if that interest you  PS: A point to note above is to feed a VARIED DIET and not an exclusive one  |
