The temperature was 52 - 62 back then so yes. They would have been eating their regular high protein / fat medaka food. I think I was using Hikari Medaka-no-Mai last year. Thank you for chiming in Medakahead @StreetRyder075 !
@@medakametal thank you for the answer. And keep up to nice content. I do work with medaka's for a couple of months now and a lot of them are now outside. So some extra food is not bad💪🏽 also a lot of eggs so im bussy whatchinh you fry video's to pick up some stuff that can extra help for succes. 👍🏼
I really like your content, I’m glad there is a dedicated medaka youtuber. And I agree with your statement that Medaka strains have to be hardy, retaining the ability to overwinter and survive hot summers. I think the reason why they are so strong is because people prioritized hardiness first before color and mutations. I hope it remains this way because I dont want them to turn into guppies, with very variable levels of hardiness. It takes a certain level of genetic and physiological fitness to be able to overwinter and survive summers, so even with tight line breeding, as long as they retain that level of diversity in their genes for surviving those temperatures, it is easier to retain that hardiness. When they are kept exclusively indoors for many generations I think it can become lost because even weaker fish can survive and breed.
Thriving for a strong and deform free lineage supersedes beauty. When the three align. Absolute beauty. Thank you for chiming in Medakahead @Kenjiro - san!
I forgot the exact one that I was using on this particular video, but it should be the one I purchased in Tokyo. You should be able to see more of the case on "Medaka Products From Japan" video. ruclips.net/video/l5nRCy99_QE/видео.html Thank you for chiming in Medakahead @genioocampo8275 !
Hello. Thank you for all the infomation that you share. I am in central Florida with a 35 gallon pond on my screened and partly covered porch. I bought Japanese trapdoor snails and wondered if I made a mistake. Do you know if they eat medaka eggs? I have added a lot of plants.
I only have experience with Ramshorn snails. I keep them in all of my outdoor tubs and in my indoor tanks. I have not come across an issue. Maybe they are? maybe they are not. They haven't been an issue where I am left without eggs. The only way to experiment is to put a snail in a container with 10+ eggs to observe their behavior. I have met people who have told me "Ramshorn snails only eat Non-fertile eggs". or " Ramshorn snails do not eat eggs". I don't have an answer but, my snails help the eco-system for me. I love them! Thank you very much for your comment Medakahead @teripayne2895 !
I love this. What you basically did was you imitated a green pond or water setup very similar to Japanese koi. There are lots of minerals and natural foods. These set ups give the fish better immunity, growth and color vibrancy. That’s awesome my Medaka are skinny and actually smaller in my pond yours look much better in those environments that’s cool! Again very similar to Japanese koi keeping
Just wanna tell u I watch all ur videos since I found u a few months back... I've learned a lot from u. I got about 6 variety of medaka... and I enjoy keeping and breeding them. I'm not too far from SF... thank u and keep it up.
I hope that I can continue to bring something new as I explore and experiment. Documenting what has worked and what has not along the process. The best thing is that I get to learn from all you Medakaheads out there as the interest in the hobby grows. 6 varieties sounds amazing CBC! Thank you for the kind words Medakahead CBC!
love the content, just a question. do you feed them when they where in the brown tub?

Great video as always!
It's that time again for me to start consolidating my tubs. Thanks again Medakahead Mr10!
Where did you get those small black and white display tanks? Love how it makes it easy to see them.

From the point of hatching, how long does it take medaka to reach adulthood?
They can reach sexual maturity in 3 - 4 months
