Fancy
Fantails, Orandas,
Telescopes, and many
other types of fancy
Goldfish have horizontal
tail fins with two lobes
and are not compatible
with Comet Goldfish and
Koi, which have a single
vertical tail fin, swim
faster, eat most of the
food, and often bully
Fantails, Orandas, and
Telescopes, that have
dual lobed horizontal
tail fins. Click

Hi there, Gentlemen,
I had already shared this with you over the phone, but thought you might like photos and more detail.
Last year, I purchased some of your $12.00 Calico Ryukins and a few calico Ranchu. As always, the fish were healthy and active on arrival. I have yet to lose ANY of the fish from you. Can't say that about any other source that I
have purchased fish from.
Anyway, most eventually went into my outdoor ponds, where the did very well.
This past August, some friends who own a pond business and provide Show Quality Koi and Goldfish to our Washington and Oregon Fish community, were packing to go to a show in Spokane, WA. They mentioned to me, that they were
"shy" of Ryukins, in particular for a good selection for the customers there.
So, I offered some from my ponds, as I needed to reduce numbers anyway. Six came out of my collection, two of the babies from you.
One had grown to over 5" and I knew it was a good fish ... it had just missed going to the Portland, OR show with me a few weeks earlier.
This particular fish was purchased by Phyllis Olsen for $75.00 and entered into the Inland Empire Koi and Goldfish Show, there, in Spokane.
I was flabberghasted when I received the phone call telling me this fish won Reserve Champion in the Goldfish show!!! I have never won that high an award myself, but a fish I gave away took the prize!! We were
all delighted!
Another club member, who buys VERY expensive show fish, was upset he had not gotten this fish because he had been looking for one just like it for three years!! He also let us know had the fish been just a bit more deep
bodied, it would have taken Champion!!
Mrs. Olsen provided the following photos, sorry I could not get them to my photo program to clean them up.
Thank you and your staff for providing healthy, Quality fish! I have an order in now for Blue Orandas in a larger size.
You have been particularly helpful in selecting fish carefully to meet the standards I have
requested.
Best Wishes and Congratulations on this win.
