12 days old ranchu fries....please look closely at their liveliness. Ranchu breeding is an art/science and given our(SINGAPORE!!) very handicapped and unique space situation, we ranchu keepers especially the die hards have done much hardworks over the years to improvised and relearned the fine art of ranchu keeping. We in Singapore are raising ranchu in very harsh environment especially lack of space and good Sunlight....respect those who dare venture into the ranchu challenge to test their fishkeeping skills...will you take up the challenge???


Breeding and growing ranchu fries with "ZERO" death....once any death occur, something is either wrong with the water or live feeds....we always maintain very tight control on water quality and very attentive because one small negligence and whole spawn might have to be thrown away and start at ground ZERO again!!

I am wondering is there a better way to catch a big size Ranchu instead of using bare hand?
As the fish get bigger and stronger, it has more power to struggle when I use my hands and I am worry that I may apply to much force trying to calm but injuring it instead.

As the ranchu gets bigger, I normally will use a white plastic bowl to bowl them out during transfer like water change. You can buy this bowl romr supermart like NTUC or Giant.
