[ak47_chicago]

I am fall in love with Bristol with Heart Shaped. I will starting off my video, pictures and process sometime next weekend. I have 7 of them.

The first one at about 2.74 inches
2 of them about 1.5 inches
4 of them about 1 inches

The line is Gary From Ohio... heeee..

Food will be Hikari Saki Fancy Goldfish only until they reach 4 to 5 inches. If you want to help out. You can send me some free foods. I don't mind to take some from you..hehe

Welcome to grooming club.. :) It's good to see different people try to groom different kind of fish. :)

[ak47_chicago]

Since this will be my first heart shaped ever. Any suggestion will be help. But I don't need any help for what suppose to eat. I will only Feed them with Hikari Saki Fancy Goldfish(will stop as soon as reaching 5 inches) and then Hikari Lionhead for their rest of their life. heee

Variety is the spice of life.

[ak47_chicago]

That is really true. I will mixing with Variety of foods for their rest of life. heee.

I am getting good Bristol growth from Saki...... I don't feed BW(save that for ranchu) or feed as heavy as ranchu. I don't want body growth ahead of finnage(trying to keep balance......)

Sorry, Pictures should be ready this weekend the lastest. Maybe tonight. I only have 6 bistrols now. 3 of them already bye bye.

1 of them at 2.5"to 2.75"
2 of them at 1" to 1.25"
3 of them at .75 to 1"

[ak47_chicago]

Any suggestions are welcome. From things I need to know. I knew these are the hardy fish in the world. Since these are my first time for bristols. There are 6 different one in the video. One poor guy lost half of the top tail due to shipping. But he is recovered now and the new tail already starting to growth back out. Which one you like better? I like the one with a big tail. I knew they all look alike. But u can see of the them have a huge tail compared to his body.

Add some frozen food

[small_ranchu]

Beautiful tail. Can't wait to see their progress. what is your feeding/water change schedule?

[BruceP]

Very pretty Bristols!!!!!!!!!!! You will need to enter at least one in the Chicago Show! :)

[ak47_chicago]

LOL, Bruce, I think they are too small for the show. I might bring my black oranda to the show in Chicago.

Anyway, Fred, My schedule is unsure yet! This time I want to go slow. Maybe 2 meals in the morning. One in the afternoon and 2 meals at night instead of 1 meal(finished in 2 mins or less)every hour from 6am to 11pm.

Gary, thanks for your suggestion. I will treat them with some frozen Daphnia.

I want go slow this time. It is good for my wallet and my back(water change).

Take care and thanks everyone for all of your suggestion.

:omg: you are funny.

[ak47_chicago]

I am funny?? Most of the girls said that to me too.

Fred, I have some topview ranchu baby too(few of them with top fin..hehe). Do you want to see them too? They are not have any color yet. They are greenish now. They are GFO line too. They are so cute. I put them in a 12 gallon tank now. If I have time I will take some video sideview of their meal time. They look so CUTE man!

"I knew that TVR should be no top fin". So you guys don't have to tell me that!

You could start a new bloodline of TVR with dorsal fins here. It would be interesting to see if it'd look better than typical TVR.:youtellme: What's GFO?

GFO is the greatest bloodline in North American.

Fred, do you know? If u are my friend. You should know...hehe. Maybe ask Dan what is GFO... Wait. not UFO. It is GFO

[small_ranchu]

GFO is Gary From Ohio. lol

You are assigning (Name - Location) line so when are we going to see SFC line?

[ak47_chicago]

I was doing that on purpose. So they can think of something else, instead of keep thinking about goldfish or Top View Ranchu. This way good for the wallet and their back too. Time to think about Bristols with Heart shaped.

Hehe, Of course I knew what is SFC(maybe not). .But I won't tell you. Let them think about it.

[ak47_chicago]
