Regular Member seheap Posted October 23, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted October 23, 2008 OO I WANT HIM I WANT HIM I WANT HIM!!! O no fair Kathy! Posting beautiful ryukin like that. He's so gorgeous, but I really can't afford to pay $125 plus shipping for a fish. Not to mention, I don't have room in my tank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member misty_blue16137 Posted October 23, 2008 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 23, 2008 Thanks everyone! I thought it was a Telescope like Skye at first. Then saw it was a Ryukin. I've never seen one this color before. Has anyone else? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member lynda441 Posted October 23, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted October 23, 2008 The dorsal fin is amazing and the colorings and markings are gorgeously unbelievable! For its size, it hasn't much of a hump, but with all of its other beauty, who cares! At least you know that, given the size, those markings should remain and that's what's the most beautiful! You're a trickster! Here you are saying, "oh yeah, isn't this pretty" and by the time I looked at it, it was sold and I'm thinking, "too late for you girl!" silly thing and then you go and tell us you bought it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know,lol. I had the first bid on it but then just knew I'd lose it last minute. Just one of those feelings so just decided to get it and be done with it. I know it doesn't have much of a hump. Was why I thought it was a Telescope at first quick look. But it is just so pretty and such an unusual color I had to have it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jed: don't you like the one without item number, the second last one? Not really, Fred. I love this one. http://www.goldfishnet.com/images/Auction/...CTION%20003.JPG I also sent Tommy an email to see if he brought back anymore like this one. I bought this ranchu from Tommy and before he could ship him, the fish had some problems, so he couldn't ship him. http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y240/deed...pg?t=1224824998 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
