I recently and

got into fancy goldfish with two red and white Ryukins and a black Ranchu. I had hoped that I'd picked male and female Ryukins, but wasn't prepared for the spawning a week after putting them in my tank. *LOL* Here's the blushing bride the day of the spawn:
And the happy couple:
The day of the event:
And the dark nemesis intent on caviar brunch:
(see the eggs stuck on the glass? She gottum, but missed the one on the leaf.)
Got a 40 gallon nursery going. Maybe 30-40 eggs look viable and they should be hatching any day. What a way to start into fancies, eh? *LOL* I can't get just one foot in. Oh no. Just gotta jump in with both feet and a wetsuit......
I suppose the ranchu is a female. Wasn't in the least interested in the spawning other than the banquet that ensued.....
Love the pics! They are wonderful aren't they? Nice to have in the office. Im in a 7x11 foot office with no window. I have to have something to make me smile, right?
Glad to see you found this other hobby. It's quite enjoyable!
Blessings,
Ethan
