This year 2008,let me unveil another wonderful red based calico ranchu......arguably the best so far
   Take a look at the video The blacks are yet to appear but this fish has excellent deportment,good headgrowth,nice smooth back and paired equal anals.  Oh what a wonderful find,don't you think? |

Thanks. thank you for your comment.You can find good red,red and white,black quite easily but to get a good nacreous ranchu is increasingly difficult.This class of ranchu shows alot of defects and deficiencies  . |

Only can see calico ranchu with such good feature in net (esp yours) live one never have the chance to get one. Wonder how to improve the 'or lu lu' spot there doc? Cheers Siung This post has been edited by n-bie: Tue, 02 Dec 2008 10:43 am |

Cheers Siung With good water conditions,if the blacks are meant to be,they will surface and darken over time. |

Once again good find. Finally decision will be reserved ....until this ranchu is groomed to its potential. I would like the see how the overall red colour progresses.....over time.

I wonder what would be an ideal red calico ranchu?
If i think about it, for me it should have: 1> completely red body with no calico markings except a large black spot on the back of the fish. 2> And, tiny black spots on the head and of all fins. is there one? kinder |

No molten larva that oozes from this fish Not quite what I expected out of this dish Nevertheless it has grown to near 16cm Colors still a far cry from winning any Grand Slam The blacks are still relatively weak Getting it ready for the show remains rather bleak 3 more months before I decide on this candidate To be a winner you need to have more than what it takes.......  |

Hi Doc,
This fella needs a lot of exercise, the belly is too fat...  Nice headgrowth though.. Rgds, William |
