Regular Member number20121 Posted October 17, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted October 17, 2010 So this is the little Ryukin I got today and who will have to stay in quarantine for now. She is quite sulky, and likes to hide between the pot and the bubble stone She really is red and white, but the camera alters the colors a bit. Kind of like this is what it really looks like. But the photos make it either too dark or too glowing. The third picture is closest to true color. Checking out her own reflection just swimming around This one showed me how many water stains are on the outside of the tank but it also shows the Ryukin shape a bit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Cynders Posted October 17, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted October 17, 2010 She is very very cute! She reminds me of my little Amaterasu, a red and white ryukin but she was really round. I want your quarantine tank btw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psst...you have to change your goldfish count in your profile I know And yeah, I normally never see them in actual red and white, but this LFS I discovered carries a small but very pretty variety of rare-ish goldfish. They had another ryukin that I loved. Two actually, a really pretty calico with a lot of small black speckles on a nice orange, with only a little bit of white; kind of like this one http://www.americangoldfish.org/Winston%20salem/calico%20ryukin.jpg And another calico with only a little black and a lot of orange which was really light colored, like a yellowish apricot. That one was a bit larger. Especially the latter caught my eyes too a while ago, but I really wanted a red and white one. Btw, for all of you who are looking for chocolate pom poms; they got about 10 right now for I think 16.99 each Man, if I just had a larger tank already. Adding two more fish to my tank right now... nah. But they were SO cute. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member number20121 Posted October 17, 2010 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 17, 2010 Got one more pic, this one shows the true color quite well. This is her bottom sitting out of boredom shortly after coming home. Sad fish is sad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member RanchuDressing Posted October 18, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted October 18, 2010 What a striking contrast between her red and white areas -- very pretty! She's going to grow up into a stunning ryukin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member number20121 Posted October 18, 2010 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 18, 2010 Thank you! The photos are a bit slightly over saturated, meaning she glows a little more than in reality. Yet she is still so gorgeous, the red is of such a beautiful shade. I can't wait for her to be an all big Ryukin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member number20121 Posted October 19, 2010 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 19, 2010 I managed to take some really good photos of her, finally, as well as a real nice shot of her quarantine tank at night. Little Vanille is so lovely :) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
