A charming and resilient nano fish, the Medaka Ricefish is a favorite among aquarists for its adaptability and peaceful nature. Originating from Japan and East Asia, these small, active swimmers come in a variety of colors, from shimmering whites to vibrant oranges and blues. They thrive in both aquariums and outdoor ponds, making them a versatile choice for hobbyists. With their ease of care and fascinating breeding behavior, Medaka Ricefish are an excellent addition to community tanks or species-only setups.

Got 3 sets, and they all came in healthy, except for a single DOA, which I expected due to a carrier delay. Not sure which specific types they are, but they all look healthy and colorful! Can't wait for them to grow out!
Got a couple of the mixed Medaka, my first foray into this type of fish. Arrived in great condition and with a variety of colors. Currently happily darting around their new home. Thanks, Daku
Fish arrived healthy and beautiful.
The fish came beautiful. Thank you
Fast shipping with the 5+1 fish all arriving healthy and vigorous. My tank has a higher PH so I drip acclimated for 4.5 hours before adding them.
The fish I received are a nice mix of varieties. Black, orange, and silver/white which will color up more with age. I love their swimming behavior and the movement they add to the tank.
I would highly recommend anyone interested in nanofish give this a shot
