i suggest no need to be from the same LFS. i think even from diff LFS also might be from the same supplier.
since they are $2 cheapskates, dun expect them to be of any good lines.
as long as they are the $2 types not more than 1 inch during purchase can liao....

give a time frame.....make it a step by step competition, prob 3 mths interval to see improvements....

hows my suggestion??

Generally speaking, the short-tail variety does not have a crown.

Sorry dude, they do exist !

Yeah, more suggestion please!

Er.. as for banning ET...

I think no point; he'll just enter the competition using the names of his girl friens, sisters, aunties, neighbourhood sluts, primary school art and craft teachers, etc etc.

We just have to watch out for 2 feet long pearls.

Better yet, just ban crown pearls.

Hey guys, I love the idea of the Pearscales competition!  Shall we do it?

Let's see... why Pearlies?  Because the short-tails variety is cheap at $2 (€0.97).  Try getting a decent ranchu for $2; you can't.  Heck, for $2 you probably can't get a decent Ryukin or Oranda too.  Pearlies are for cheapskates.  biggrin.gif

I think we won't care how you groom it.  Green Water, green water with filtration, clear water with daily change, clear water that never change for 4 months ... whatever.  It's your call. 

How's that?  Add on the list on what you like to the little competition to be like!

Not a bad idea ! I would support a 3 months interval to see the real improvement. ET must be smiling .... stepping on his battle ground.

oei ... dun say until so cheap leh. Some of the tikus pearls not cheap leh. Most of them we see are small, so selling very cheaply at 1-2 bucks. Some larger ones at 4-5 bucks. Only during certain period u will see about 20 bucks (Qianhu competition got a few pairs of that size). To see a baseball size, that's a lot of skill and effort to put in.

i think we can get on with things, without a definite start time or wait for anyone. as long as the first few picture of the competition fish is posted, the person can carry on with his grooming. with 3 mth from date of purchase is up, repost again and we can followup from there. how about that? Its suppose to be a casual competition.

Ya those are called tiku. Malaysia pearl to be exact. Good ones not easy to find hor ... so small u have to tikam tikam leh ...

Dun buy a few, keeping tikus can be a real challenge. Buy a few dozens !

3-5x the price for good one ? NO WAY ! A good one can be 10-30x depends on size.

So this challenge is about size ? or color ? or shape ? or feature ? kekekekeke ...
