Back in 2003, i bought 4pcs of tancho (maruyama i think), 1 became bocho, 2 became male, only 1 turned out like this. Imagine, buy 4 fish to get 1 good one! Very expensive!

Yours is very cute & slender, like Zhang Zhiyi...

From where? Nippon?

Hi Folks,

I'm so pleased to update this remarkable made-in-singapore Tancho on behalf of its very proud owner- bluesotong. This babe now measures 60cm at 2 years old, and if you scroll back to page 1, you can see how she has bloomed into such a beauty today.

Lovely body line?


Direct top view... is the tail tube thick enough?
