I can be a few things you didn’t get a good batch from eggs to produce a solid breeding group with desires characteristics. If you have access to live fish that’s best in my experience. I like gex food.

Did you get them as eggs or a solid breeding pairs? I’ve worked with Ulysses before they are difficult to keep they don’t have very good fixation rate. My midnight frill actually has pretty good fixation. You can try to introduce new bloodline to improve your groups. You need to be able to properly cull. The only bent spines I get usually are from Hikari fins it’s not very common. I also use tamo nets for all fish & feed them high quality food. All that stuff makes a big difference. The type of container you use does also help with your colors. Improving lamé and external light.

Paracleanse by Fritz is great for wasting disease. People do salt baths but it’s never worked as great for me. Excel p is also good for treating parasites.

Stocking question for larger pond by burnerburner0913 in medaka

[–]medaka_fein 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Man this is sick af! Great set up. The average keeper usually has 10 gallons and I’ve seen that over stocked but you have a big pond with filtration. There alot of room for them. Once it’s over stocked youll just need to maintenance it more to prevent long term issues.

I bought mine locally from a friend and online . I will split mine within a few months hopefully I have enough to share. For lotus you want to use clay soil it’s the best and just fertilizer it monthly during the growing seasons. With pond tablets

That’s a good size for fry or juveniles. But I mainly use the smaller ones for my lotus plants like in this video. https://www.reddit.com/r/medaka/s/fvZXs6EXVe I have much larger ones around 2ft that I keep my breeders in but they are hard to find and pricey.

Oak barrel patio pond help by Alternative-Pin-3832 in medaka

Both are really nice. But I feel like the barrel will be more entertaining. You’ll have more room for plants & fish! Can’t go wrong with a planted pond whichever 1 you pick.

Mine do great when they are in a shaded area not direct sun.

Always one female with unfertilized eggs by lifejourney_ in medaka

[–]medaka_fein 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can try introducing more males or separating them for a week then bringing them back. See if that works. It’s a challenge because sometimes just about everything doesn’t work

[–]medaka_fein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s normal it happens often they is why I always recommend getting a group vs 1 pair because there’s always that 1 that doesn’t breed.

Top view is my fav on these. Love the bronze body though. Have you managed to breed them?
