Getting bigger. One of these has unique coloring but his tail is garbage and has asymmetric eyes, but the coloring was so unique in the spawn, I had to keep him.
Slow to grow compared to the Bristols, but they are getting there. The Sakura with both metallic eyes is my current favorite #raregoldfish #telescopeeyegoldfish #pearlscalegoldfish
Wen or no wen on telescope eye pearlscales? I think both are great, but we rarely see non-wen tele-pearls in the US. #raregoldfish #telescopeyegoldfish #pearlscalegoldfish
A few projects from this group. Cross back celestial Pom Pom. Outcross metallic celestial Pom Pom with matte egg Phoenix. From that F1 outcross, I’ll cross back the matte F1s with the celestial Pom poms to work on a calico celestial Pom Pom line. I’ll also inbreed the calico F1s with the best form and longest tails for a calico dragon back line #raregoldfish #celestialeyegoldfish #dragonbackgoldfish #pompomgoldfish
This one knew how to apply fishy makeup. Cross between a demekin and a telescope oranda so there are some wen genes in there #telescopeeyegoldfish
The all red one is the largest from the spawn. It had a late growth spurt but is now the pack leader
The telescope Bristol spawn did throw a decent amount of normal eye Bristol shubunkins, however I’m not 100% certain that these aren’t just late bloomers. #raregoldfish #bristolshubunkin
A shubunkin doesn’t want to be fed, they want to hunt! … these semi floating pellets catch the filter flow and then bounce around like live food in the tank, the telescope Bristol’s love the chase. #raregoldfish #telescopeeyegoldfish #bristolshubunkin
I brought this group inside thinking these were some of my best Sakura that I wanted to watch in a tank, but one of them upon closer inspection was a really striking red/white metallic. Most of the metallics from the spawn are all red, but one of these is a special! #raregoldfish #telescopeeyegoldfish #pearlscalegoldfish
Striking red on this Sakura telescope with a little red pom pom. Cross between a demekin and a telescope oranda so it also has a bit of wen #telescopeeyegoldfish #orandagoldfish
Under the sea in the big telescope Bristol pool #bristolshubunkin #telescopeeyegoldfish
Trying to take video of these telescope Bristol shubunkins is like trying to catch Bigfoot on film. #raregoldfish #bristolshubunkin
This group has yet to demelanize. Could be a few weeks, months or longer. The female parent from the group stayed black for almost two years, but is now completely red. #pearlsclaegoldfish #telescopeeyegoldfish #raregoldfish
Some of my favorites that I’m bringing inside. These along with a few others will likely be the parents for the next generation of telescope pearlscales. Some of these have a little blue which is what I’m trying to bring out. #raregoldfish #telescopeeyegoldfish #pearlscalegoldfish
These are a telescope oranda/broadtail demekin cross. Most have petite wens. Time and space are limited on the goldfish continuum so I’ve decided not to work on a tele-oranda line and will be parting with these fish. Will be listed on the website over the next few days. #demekingoldfish #telescopeeyegoldfish #orandagoldfish
Big eye crew. The eyes continue to grow as the fish get older, so these ones are going to be huge
It’s not even that cold. They just line up like sardines by the heater.
These 3 chonksters are heading to their new home this week. Love the one with the big eyes #pearlscalegoldfish #telescopeeyegoldfish #raregoldfish
Water change day for the telescope shubunkins. This is just a scoop of them. Some are getting beastly #raregoldfish #telescopeeyegoldfish #bristolshubunkin
Cleaned out the little pool today and covered with netting in preparation for fall…. these are mostly pets as the breeding stock and fry are inside.
