Japanese ADA

[NeilW]

If you ever feel bored its worth checking out the Japanese version of the ADA website every now and then as it contains quite a few goodies that don't appear in their own 'english' translation link.

Enter http://www.adana.co.jp/jp/ (their standard english link ends in .co.jp/en/) into a translator such as Google

How cool is this setup for a beginner?! Just buy yourself a Do!Aqua Mini, a few rocks and a pregrown wabi kusa and away you go! Have a look at the video. I wish I'd started off with that. They even provide some print out pdf instructions, a personal order form, and details on how to maintain your tank in the long run.

I believe they're killifish by the looks of things as they're intended to be pretty hardy for beginners and also filterless

Yeah Oryzias latipes, rice fish, most likely I understand they're used quiet often in Wabi kusa for their muted colours.

Yes that fish looks pretty hardy and suitable for unheated wabi kusas. The trouble is that it is difficult if not impossible to get hold of them in the UK 🙁 I would love to give them a try!

Cool tank.

The Rice fish are always available from Maidenhead aquatics, as they are a regular on the ordering list. Easy enough for them to order them in for you. Well that is the MA branches I go to.

There were some at Kesgrave tropicals last time I went 🙂 Try ebay, they have a shop on there.

Great! Thanks guys, I would probably give them a try in the next wabi kusa project 🙂
