Default Tosakins!

Sharing some of my humble Tosakins. Pardon the low quality pics, which were taken using my handphone.

Very nice. How long have you being keeping them ? Please share your experience in keeping these Tosakins. I am sure many brothers here are very keen to keep these beauties but lack the skill to them alive for long.

Only been keeping Tosakins for 3 years or so. Contrary to what people read online though, they are definitely not that difficult to care for, so long as certain parameters/requirements are covered. I am still learning as well, but would love to share ideas and small talk with anyone who's interested in Tosakins as well!

Hey Samuel, all my breeders were handpicked from Japan personally, with some of the fish being winners at their annual Tosakin conservation society competitions (didn't come cheap though! ). Still working on learning the ropes from the masters haha!

Thanks for sharing.

The fishes are definitely very impressive specimens and I am sure they cost a fortune to acquire.

Thank you for sharing. Care to elaborate on the parameters/requirements ? What is your water change routine ?
