A Good Ryukin, What Do you think? Options

[goldrush]

Tis not often we see a fish of exceptional quality
Far too often we are swarmed with sheer quantity
A ryukin of majestic pose is a rare find
This one I show is one of its kind
Dorsal erect to get your attention
Rest of fins,balance,equal not to mention
There exist only one possible flaw
A single anal that may break competition law
Colours are vivid and sharply demarcated
Body 's not overfat nor seem emaciated
The following pics will show its strength
5 inch and no more is perhaps its length

This one shows its marvellous scalation



This one shows equal balance



This one shows what's on the other side

Though the grass may seem greener at this end
Still the hunt can be frustrating ,not to mention the price you are willing to spend
It is not my intention here to poison all
Neither my purpose to drive most up the wall
Teaching can be a painful lesson
Learning can thus be a bitter medicine
Goldfish keeping is a continual education to share
It is just not simple feeding nor frivolous care
It takes many years to come this far
And just as many to overcome failures,disappointments with unlimited battled scars
The internet,these forums have opened to many,many doors
Not just for the uninitiated but the experienced who desire to learn more......
