RU-vid doesn't allow links in the comments, people are responding but it keeps getting taken down. I would message him through Instagram. I put the link in the description
I really want to start breeding rice fish, but no one in Australia knows about them so very difficult to sell, it’s a pity because they are a beautiful little fish 🐠
I thought Ricefish were supposed to be longer lived. I've not had luck with mine from other sources. They've lived less than a year out in my tub pond. But I probably got older fish. No fry from them either. Makes me consider not doing more in the future. If I do I'll definitely be considering yours.
I sent a request to the Facebook group. I hope they continue to be bred to be hardy outdoors year-round, the winter naturally culls off the weaker fish. I hope there is some outcrossing with these new strains, it is like producing a new morph for a reptile, you obviously want to make more but you don't want to be producing weaker animals, so you outcross that new morph line with new blood every so often to maintain that vigor and hardiness.
