Had this guy since he was a small guy when i was just starting out with my goldfish love(back then i was looking for nice fantails as I was new and didnt know much about the varieties available)...let me know guys and will be looking to breed this one in the future.Has anyone tried to create tosakin from ryukins????

Nice fish, looks to be related to a Tosakin with the spread you have on the finnage

Thanks Cincy.
This is why i'm asking if anyone has bred any tosakins out of ryukins.I've heard this is how they started so Im interested.

to my knowledge, tosakins were created by selected breeding of ryukins. there are a lot broadtail ryukins out there that have butterfly almost tosakin finnage.

A large percentage of my last Ryukin spawn had butterfly tails.
Too bad I culled them all out.:youtellme: Who knew.
