goldenswimmers Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 With all the varieties in goldfish I find it cool to find someone who is challenging the traditions and looking at new colour schemes and even new varities...alot of guys in Asia are very traditional with goldfish breeds but they seem to freak out a bit when they see the magic this guy does..really nice guy too and hes always been friendly and more than willing to offer any advice on anything to do with these guys... So heres some examples of Hermantos work..... His own creation...he calls it batik colour scheme(after an Indonesian pattern thats similar) Blue ranchu Not sure but damn what a mix of colours!

goldenswimmers Posted January 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) Just a couple more of the Batik ranchu..this seems to get the most attention and some more pearlscale ranchus he has alot of other stuff he has done...he is the guy who got me thinking about the single tail ranchu..."koichu" butterfly tail ranchu....and a beautiful half red half black ranchu..looks like flames on the bottom and black at the top... many others...do a google search Edited January 29, 2012 by goldenswimmers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matmatmat Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 where is the breeder from Java from memory? I remember seeing them on finmood or maybe goldfishkeepers? Not sure which? After a quick search it was east java.. Now where the heck is java? I guess it's in Indonesia.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaniBrooke Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Goldenswimmers- I got two fantails the other week- one is orange with black markings, which have led to the name "Fishler" because it looks like a fish Hitler, and the other one I though was very pretty- white with red markings... now when I see it, all I see is an evil clown- red lips, red eyes (red ring around eyes...) and I kinda get freaked out by it...

DaniBrooke Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 I'll try to get some good ones over the next couple of days- they are still a bit shy about coming up to me when I'm next to the tank- everyone else follows me around, up and down the tank, but these two are a bit slow at realising I mean food.

goldenswimmers Posted May 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) Man this guy just dont quit....just continues to pump out quality fish by experimenting with colours and even styles(you'd be surprised what genetics fall by the wayside as he finds/creates beautiful fish...it really is very interesting to see the formulas that create these fish)....this is the product of controlled intelligent crossing.... Check these recent guys out: F1s from first cross(aimed at colour pattern)as juevenile fish is now older with headgrowth forming offspring from the above F1 If interested in looking at creating etc PM me(or do your research)..not promoting inexperienced crossing as its alot of HARD work Edited May 25, 2012 by goldenswimmers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
