Blue Based Calico Ranchu, 蓝 底 五 花 Options

[goldrush]

I have to admit I got a soft spot for calicos,and this one did not escape my fancy.

A good 5 inch across its length,the red patch across its face is the only blemish on an otherwise uniformly colored fish.I have included a video and some static shots for all to appreciate.

Incidentally this fish resembles another fish which I have shown earlier with that atypical oblique red across the face.

First a video



Some close up shots

2 months ago,I have shown forum this particular piece.

Now, this fish was kept in isolation throughout this 2 month period in a 2 feet 5-plan tank.It enjoyed 100% change of water daily and fed exclusively on only 2 meals of paste food daily.Despite its confined space,it has certainly bulk with thickness and girth if you would concur with me.Question is do we need more meals to sustain growth as prescribed here or just 2 or 3 feedings of high quality feed is suffice to attain similar result?

I leave such a controversial subject to your very own discretion


Meanwhile just enjoy
