Hope this was helpful and interesting! I’ll be trying to get more rice fish videos out :) Be sure to follow me on Instagram for more pictures and updates @ryowatanabee
Good stuff, Ryo! I think Japanese Rice Fish is a market that people are very interested in but there's not a lot of information about outside of Japan. Educate us more on medaka!
Hello, wishing you well. I’m in USA and have been looking at rice fish for awhile. They are so cute 🥰 I’m so in love. I’m having a hard time finding breeders out here. Do you sell them ?… or even better ship to USA? I’m remodeling my home and think they would be an awesome addition. Please let me know 🙏🏽
@@elizabethgrant5194 there are sellers online that sell medaka and will ship it to you. I found mine a fish store near me that sold medaka by calling around. Good luck hope you find some.
I found some sparkly silver-blue medaka near me in the US and I was pumped! They were outrageously expensive and hard to find online. I have them in a cystal vase with loads of plants. When I can I stick it in an open window for direct sun, they start breeding so I think they like it. Thanks again for your videos, never would've known these guys existed without them!
@@heres_the_sauce Yeah, thanks, but I'm pretty sure they only carry expensive morphs(or at least, 15$ is cheap for 3 individuals in the western market) Again, thank you.
Excellent care guide! Thank you so much! Ricefish are pretty cheap in Korea too but I recently travelled to America where they're so expensive! Idk why but they like to keep them in tanks there. I agree they do better outside. Plus, they look better from above anyway.
@@RyoWatanabee I’ll be sure to update! Getting cold over here (we don’t freeze over) so I’m hoping to just keep feeding and boost their weight I’m anticipation of winter. Hopefully they’ll be ready for breeding in the spring!
I found your channel recently in the last couple months. Thanks for the great content Ryo. I live in Missouri USA and we do not have anything near as amazing as the aquariums and fish you have shown us on this channel. Thank you and keep her going strong Ryo!!!
Hey, Ryo! Thank you from Seattle, WA. My wife and I just scored five platinum(?) Medaka for cheap ($5 ea vs. $65+ on ebay) for our paludarium and we're in love. Your video is so helpful-- now we're off to make a porch bowl pond!
Your rice fish bowls are so nice! I live in Athens, GA, (US). Been trying to find rice fish at my local stores and even Atlanta. No one carries them! I've found them online, but they are expensive - $8 -20 each! Yes, would like to see a tour of the rice fish breeding area.
Hello from Scotland, i have just found your video, im going to be setting up a patio pond tommorrow and i was looking for ideas, these little rice fish are fantastic , i keep white cloud mountain minnows & goldfish, im going to see if i can get rice fish for my wee mini pond now after watching your video if their available in my country cheers, yeti 🏴
I just started keeping medaka for the first time this year. The climate is more extreme where I live. Winters are cold enough that ponds will freeze solid. So I have to bring my ricefish indoors. In regards to higher temperatures - during the summer, my ricefish tolerated the higher temperatures, but if the water temperature was above 78F/25C, the eggs would fungus before the fry could hatch. Next summer, I plan to set up the outdoor ricefish pond in a more shaded area.
Yay! A Medaka video! Here in the states we call them container ponds😀 We have some crazy prices for medaka here but I got my Blue Miyuki Medaka for free from a friend. I like those really red ones as well. Great video Ryo! Please do one on the Medaka farm. Some day I would like to see a Medaka farm for my self. My family and I were talking about where we are going to go first once we are vaccinated. Japan, Singapore, and Hawaii were high on the list. Cheers, Chris
Hi: You can use the 2-3 day method to dechlorinate if your water has only chlorine in it. However it’s common now for many municipalities to use chloramine which does not dissipate like chlorine and you need a chemical dechlorinator to get rid of it.
G’day Ryo, thanks to your ricefish vids I got inspired & setup my own bowl pond. The planted setup is going super and I love it. I want to setup more. Cheers mate. 🌱
I kinda gave up breeding my orange medaka in a tub so I moved to a tank so I can observe them better. After a few days I noticed fry in the tub! I have 7 or 8 fry that made it, they are getting pretty big now. I still have 7 of the adults so I hope to get more fry from them.
So glad to hear that :) They'll definitely lay their egg in the roots of the hyacinth and you should be able to get more fish if you separate the hyacinth from the adults
Awesome new Medaka content from Sensei Ryo!🙏🙏🙌🙌 thanks for keeping so many of us around the world educated and engaged with keeping Medaka! I have finally two groups here in Barcelona: mixed “normal” strain, quite pretty to be honest, and Miyuki platinum, which are gorgeous. I’m dying to get some tricolors someday. Thanks, Ryo! Fantastic video!👌👍
Your ponds look amazing, I wish my lfs sold Medaka, Ive been waiting for at least one of my lfs to stock up on them since my trip to japan almost 6 years ago but still no luck finding them 🤧
Just found some of these beauties and bought them for mums pond. She has a large pond 10’ x 4’ and 3’ deep with loads of plants it is a very mature natural pond. So we have put some in and the rest in the patio pond. Love your videos and have watched how you have developed, well done thanks for the video….-.s as you say very rare in the UK and I think a lot of people just walk past them in the store.
You mentioned prices for the rice fish. I just bought 6 Medaka (golden rice fish) and it cost me £5.99 each total of £35.94 or ¥5924.40 a tad more expensive in the UK. I noticed bizarrely the blue daisy was cheaper and the store was a lot cheaper than online stores offer and this is a shame, I was actually at my mothers home when we saw them as I was setting up and remodelling her ponds and patio. Issue is mum lives 140 miles away from where I live in South West London.
Ryo i think u should see if u could get a bigger tub to put the water hyisin. It would help the hyisin spread out more and grow more to. Love your videos keep up the amazing work.
@@Zari_ifa Just a variety of fish foods. Flakes, Nano Xtreme, Bug Bites, maybe some Xtreme green flakes. They're in a community tank so I rotate the food daily.
I love your little ponds they are so nice ! What are the plants you have used in them ? and also what kind of soil and rocks have you used to keep the water so clear and prevent alagal bloom ?
I was so interested by what you said about keeping them inside vs outside and the reason possibly being the sun - have you kept them indoors under a UVB light? Or know of anyone who has? And if that made a difference? I want to do an experiment now! Thank you for showing us these lovely fish and the patio ponds, I'm very jealous and inspired!
Fascinating video. I just found those deep black ricefish on ebay. I'm thrilled. I wanted some tankmates for my black samurai betta. I love the ponds idea. I might do that if I ever get a balcony. Seems like a good balcony addition.
@@emiliaroman8631 I'm in North Texas and two fish stores near me have started getting platinum medaka in sometimes. So, maybe they are going to be easier to find in the US soon.
Yes the fish farm tour is a must these are fascinating fish which we don't really see in the UK but there are now a few breedes offering eggs ...ever thought of mailing eggs to your fans ? I am sure they would sell well they sell here 10 eggs for £15 on Ebay but eggs from good Japanese stock would sell for more.
I recently got 3 platinum rice fish that I came across at a small local place ran by hobbyists. They were $8 per fish, so pretty expensive but I had to have some. I think they are just beautiful. I think I've got 1 female, but it's really difficult to tell them apart. I'd like to make an outdoor bowl and move them there to see if I can get them to breed.
Awesome to hear that they can survive in cold conditions. What about the fry, though? I have 20+ medaka fry under 3/4 inch in length living outdoors. Winter is quickly depending where I live, and though I have a heater on my small pond, would the youngest fish be in danger from the cold?
I love your medaka videos, you are the best youtuber when it comes to providing information about them! I think this is the best fish to have, since I like natural things, this set of fish and plants is really natural, no need of artificial things. I keep gambusia like that since I cant find medaka where I live, but they are not colorful at all and are really shy, so they only try to hide :/ I use the aquatic umbrella plant to clean the water, its really good for the job.
Love your vids man! Just got some miyuki medakas here in the US (Colorado) and had to pay $10 per fish + shipping.... I've got lots of fry hatched out already and I'm going to bring some to the local fish store to try and make them a little more available here! I have yet to set up a little pond for them so theyve just been in my aquariums but that's the next step. How big of a bowl do you think you need minimum?
Also a good idea but the fish might be able to get out of the hole is too big. You can use a string or something and drip water out via capillary phenomenon
I love the rice fish videos Ryo! I want to visit Japan when travel gets back to normal again. I want to see some of the fancy goldfish they have for sale there
Love your videos! I really wish I could find rice fish locally to me. I set up a mini pond late in the summer this year. I used gold white cloud minnows. But I want to do madaka.
@@RyoWatanabee I have regular white clouds with neon tetras in a 29 gallon. My wife was worried about the gold white clouds being outside over the winter, so I moved them in to the 29 as well. I’ll move them back outside in the spring and see if they’ll breed for me.
thanks, really helpful! Such a video in the winter would be also very interesting. Mainly the Questions: How cold does it get outside? What can these fish tolerate and such.
Rice fish are quite expensive here in the area of Canada I'm in. They sell for $15cad each. I bought some moss a few months ago and a rice fish fry got in some how so now I have a white rice fish with all my shrimp. He needs some friends eventually
Hello Ryo congrats on your videos which are so informative and educational, no matter what fish you're presenting to your viewers. You're a great guy. I have a question: I saw another video where they presenter showed viewers rice fish eggs that he ordered, which were later hatched into Rice Fish fry. I've never heard of this before, so I asking you if that's really possible? If so how long can those eggs survived unattached from the "mother" particularly if they had to be shipped from one country to another. I await your response; thanks.
I have a river inspired 20 gallon tank that is empty other than 3 young female guppies and some ottos. Looking into some peaceful fish I could add and really wanting to add some of these! Simple yet beautiful fish! The only downside is there are no local fish stores by me that carry these so I'm looking to online alternatives.
I have watched this video so many times. It's almost pond season where I live in the US, near Seattle and I'm going to finally set up my first mini-pond. I'm curious, how much do those pond containers range in price in Japan? They always seem really expensive here & it's hard to find them without drainage holes for plants.
I may have a stupid question, but do you have to take measurements against inbreeding in a minipond full.of ricefish? Or will it sort out for itself? I once had a group of guppies that grew fry with bend tails I think.due to inbreeding??
Hey, I know its a kinda old video but wanted to ask, at 12:00, what is the name of this plant on this mini pond? is it hydrocotyle Verticillata or some kind of a peperomia? it looks amazing. btw I love your videos and they are really inspiring/helpful on keeping medakas, I recently ordered some eggs and I will finally keep some myself.
Hope this was helpful and interesting! I’ll be trying to get more rice fish videos out :)

Hi bro can the rice fish be kept in a tank without air pump and filter and plants.
Watching from Tottori City, where I got my first Medaka yesterday! Thanks for the video - it's a very useful resource! Cheers! :-)
I love this video. I’ve watched multiple times! These fish are not very common in the states, hopefully I will find some soon.

If it rains a lot dont the bowls overflow allowing the fish to swim out?
It happens but most of the time medaka don't hang out on the surface when it's raining.
That’s correct, the rice fish are very smart. They stay towards the bottom of the pond when it rains or when it’s really cold
I just drill some holes near the top... Just in case.
Also a good idea but the fish might be able to get out of the hole is too big. You can use a string or something and drip water out via capillary phenomenon

Hi Ryo, do you have any experience with Paradise Fish?
Greetings from west central Florida. I love your channel !
Ty4Sharing GOD bless.
I may have a stupid question, but do you have to take measurements against inbreeding in a minipond full.of ricefish? Or will it sort out for itself? I once had a group of guppies that grew fry with bend tails I think.due to inbreeding??
In Australia, those colours are roughly $7 to $14 each. I'm selling yellow at $3 each
Do you have to have filters and air pumps in the bottom of those ceramic planters? And how big do those pots have to be?
They can be any size you want. The bigger, the better as smaller size tends to get dirty quicker. Ricefish don’t require filter and air pumps :)
Great video. Could I keep rice fish in an outdoor pond with large goldfish ? Or would the goldfish eat the rice fish?
Hey, I know its a kinda old video but wanted to ask, at 12:00, what is the name of this plant on this mini pond? is it hydrocotyle Verticillata or some kind of a peperomia? it looks amazing.
btw I love your videos and they are really inspiring/helpful on keeping medakas, I recently ordered some eggs and I will finally keep some myself.
What plants do you have growing in the ponds aside from the water lilies?
Can you show us the display tank at Aqua Review that you donated your rice fish to?
I just subscribe your chanel.. you make me inspiration to keep fish in a pot.. From Aizawl Mizoram (India)
I would love to see rice fish farm and do you have any betta fish
