    Your family's rice fish empire is amazing. mine failed, I'm afraid. I got hair algae, and blue green algae, and it choked out the aquatic plants. I finally moved the remaining rice fish to a tank inside. But I sure love seeing your rice fish ponds!! and thank you again for sharing your uncle!

    Nice video, Ryo. I liked it a lot. When I was younger I could pass by an aquarium without even stopping, but in the last few months I discovered that keeping fish is really an awesome hobby and somehow it scratches something which brings me pleasure and satisfaction. I am watching a lot of videos about fish and aquascaping and plan to buy my first tank soon. Your enthusiasm is really inspriring. Keep on going, I am sure I am not the only viewer who enjoys your videos a lot. And say hello to your uncle, he has a really cool car.

    Hi,
    congratulations, beautiful fish. Fancy choice😊
    In my area (West-South-West Germany) it would hardly be possible to keep them outdoor for a longer period without emergency heating. Woworae is way more sensitive towards low temperatures as it comes from warmer regions.

    I really enjoyed this update, thank you! Your uncle's rice fish are beautiful and I like all the different ponds. I have water lily like the yellow flowering one you showed. The leaves are so pretty. I am on the 2nd year of my pond and I worried too much about everything.. Your advice on that is helpful. Do people keep pond snails in Japan? I have them and they are doing well but they seem to breed quickly. Water hyacinth isn't legal in the UK yet but I think we will be able to use it from next year. I'm looking forward to it!

    Hi uncle 🙏 love these videos, thanks, I've set up a small pond and I'm adding some rice fish oryzias, I've let my pond establish for a month before adding fish. They cost £10 each in the UK near London, I'll start with 7, I have 70 litres so will add more. I'll see if they breed first I think. Keep us posted on the rice and gold fish.

    I have been looking forward all winter to a new rice fish update!!!! Your medaka videos have been a revelation to me. I live in Seattle US and started keeping medaka outside a little over a year ago. I used a 200 gallon tub like what Aquarium Coop has used, and over-wintered about 30 medaka and 20 gold white clouds. They all did amazing. Now I added 2 mini ponds in pots/bowls like yours and moved all the young medaka into them. I hate to say, but their true potential is lost when they are kept in a regular aquarium. Medaka are so beautiful outside. Thank you so much for the inspiration!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    They have such nice blue eyes. These little ponds are so cool and really good they can survive all year round. What's the lowest temperatures there in the winter? We occasionally get lows in January and February of -5C and I'm worried if I do something similar then the rice fish and plants won't survive.

    • @RyoWatanabee

      Rice fish will handle -5C no problem. They handle cold temps better than hot.

    Hi, also chiming in to say this has been very helpful. Seeing how hardy these fish are and the size of pots they live in has been very informative. I ordered some white platinum rice fish from California to north Carolina and kept them in a pond there, and then later shipped them to California where I'm still keeping them as pets in a new pond. They handled the cold freezing winter in north Carolina no problem, as well as 85F water in the summer. I had never heard of rice fish before. Also your uncle is super cool

The package was sent all over the place and then there was the memorial day holiday! My eggs finally arrived. I didn't have much hope for them. What a surprise! Some of the eggs had already hatched and there were four baby rice fish in the tiny little plastic cup they were shipped in. It's now three days later and I have 8 rice fish! I'm so excited. I hope they do as well as yours. Thank you for your in-depth videos on raising these amazing little fish!

    I really admire how developed the hoby is in Japan, and how many different types there are.
    I respect your taste of the natural looking medakas, but to me also it is very fascinating how many different and unique colors there are.
    It is really a great hobby, so simple and not labor demanding, low tech, and on the other hand so rewarding with having close contact with the fish and it is so interesting to breed them. It is really a perfect fish.
