Hi low sorry (not high/ Low)

Many LFS carry these fishes nowadays but you must be patient and hunt in some ulu places.You'll be surprised some of the smaller shops and places carry such gems.
I ,ve already disclosed some of these places in my previous thread.So read them

I have to agree with you Matrix
The thai fish will not improve further
But the chinese fish has lots of potential in terms of size and finishing.It is precisely bought for the future.Easily if well kept can reach 1 kg. in weight and massive in size!

it's alreay 20 yrs of refining the body and head !!! Maybe another couple of years before the tail take better shape. 1 year only breed 1 time, dun expect things to move fast.

Do you notice that the chinese breeders do not grade their fish ? just sell everything at a common price. so if u are lucky, can get very good fish at relatively low price.

Doc got a pretty decent piece.

Agree that doc's piece is a nice Chinese ranchu that I have seen, but then again I have not been exposed to many Chinese ranchu anyway.

I have always (and still) preferred Thai ranchus (despite being Chinese kekeke).
I find that Chinese ranchu while having the advantage in size, tend to lose out not only on the head and tail but the scales as well.Scale are usually too big for my liking.

But when it comes to ryukin......no fight lah.Give me a Chinese ryukin anytime...

Just flipped thru to his other Cantonese fishes, cant help but noticed that these Cantonese fishes all seem to have mouth that points downwards.Like a beak.

http://www.RafflesGold.com/forums/index.ph...T&f=4&t=2311&s=

Wonder if there are any preferences for ranchus on the type of mouth, but I do know that a downward pointing mouth is usually preferred in a Ryukin.

Yo,doc, do they have problems feeding on floating pellets heh heh heh......

hahahahaha Seacucumber,your comments sound too familiar leh but very uncharacteristic of you to make it.In 3 months time (after BMT)I will update all of its well being.I'm only too worried of chinese fish being SBD prone,so have to feed sparingly.But these fish are realltyvoracious feeders!
