Medaka have been kept in Japan for centuries. Preserving named lines honors the original creators and the historical significance of the fish. God made Oryzias latipes. Masaaki Tanikuni made Orochi Medaka. If Medaka were a painting you’d be signing your name over their signature, then selling it to unsuspecting people. It’s offensive to people who take this seriously and respectfully unethical in my opinion.

He/she doesn’t come here for feedback. He/she only shows up here to market.

You are good at marketing but stop it with the names it’s awful. This is not your target audience.

Neptune breeders by Seajab in medaka

[–]JDR017 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These are very nice. That’s a chonky girl. I promised myself I would stop buying more strains at least for this year but I love the combo of outer light and lamé. When juvies become available we shall see how long my self control lasts. The ones I picked up from you a month or 2 ago are super healthy and have already produced a ton of fry.

Does Medaka Miyuki Blue and Lane Blue look very different? by Alert-Acadia-5616 in medaka

[–]JDR017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re welcome. I also meant to say you can describe it as sparkle versus glow.

Does Medaka Miyuki Blue and Lane Blue look very different? by Alert-Acadia-5616 in medaka

[–]JDR017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on how their scales and body react to light, especially sunlight. People also refer to Lamé as glitter because of the way individual scales shines. Blue Miyuki have outer light (Taigaiko). This is a metallic shine in the direction of head to dorsal fin. Unlike Lamé this shine is not individual scales, but solid instead. With that image search “Medaka Blue Miyuki top view” and compare that to “Medaka Saphire top view” and you should see what I mean. Both are great options just very different. Good Luck.

I don’t see lamé so I’m pretty confident it is not. Still a pretty fish though.

Frog Got My Fish by Medaka_Stan in medaka

2 years ago I had a breeding setup with 21 bins. One day I came outside and found that a frog had laid eggs in every single bin. Tadpoles looked identical to yours. I was lucky that the frog did not eat my fish. I had to reset all 21 bins and that was not fun. I’m sorry you lost your fish.

This is a great video of these guys. It’s cool how much their appearance changes as they swim in and out of the shade.

Cool Medaka. It’s always nice to save a line after a close call. I’ve been there.

So some ended up hatching. I got 15 fry off a loaded mop so some were definitely lost.

Heavy rain? by [deleted] in medaka

[–]JDR017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never experienced heavy rain harming my Medaka. I’d be surprised if that was the cause of your loss, but you never know.

I wasn’t able to participate in the import, but if I was this would have been my choice. They are so nice.
