dnalex 13,633 Posted July 26, 2013 Your Wacken is amazing! Is he/she a ranchu/ryukin hybrid? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shellbell4ever 1,381 Posted July 26, 2013 nice job how old is she now?? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AnnaMNR 68 Posted July 26, 2013 I estimate that she's around 10 months to a year old. I'm not sure if she's a hybrid or not, what makes you see ranchu in her? I'm curious. ^^ lol Thanks you guys! She's my pride and joy <3 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dnalex 13,633 Posted July 26, 2013 I'm not sure. It's just that the way the dorsal is positioned makes me think it's a hybrid. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Helen 8,511 Posted July 26, 2013 i was just discussing with Alex, and we thought to be a hybrid.. i am more inclined having referenced the book "Goldfish Guide" to think you have a Japanese Wakin. what differs the Japanese Wakin from others is the slightly raised back and slightly shorter body, which yours seems to display. the pelvic, anal and dorsal fins all resemble the typical Wakin on all counts. so, with a good, regular diet that includes lots of protein (and your fish displays far from starving ) i don't see why that hump would not be marginally bigger again so, my vote is that your fish is a beautiful Japanese Wakin 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ichthius 122 Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) Looks like a short tail Ryukin that are all over the Asian transship lists these days. I don't see Wakin here. Too short in length, too tall in depth, to round of a back. Edited July 26, 2013 by Ichthius 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AnnaMNR 68 Posted July 29, 2013 If she was a wakin what size tank would she need? I've only ever seen pictures of long bodied wakins. Thanks for the help! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
