  1. Finally got around actually posting the #WCMM article I wrote in like 2022 lol.

    I never felt like it was finished. Always needing more stuff stuffed into it, more photos, etc. But I can't just let it sit for another 3 years in my archive doing nothing when it's fully functional for anyone interested in knowing more about keeping white cloud mountain minnows in patio ponds.

  2. I really enjoy the pattern some #whiteclouds develop after a short time outside. I think in terms of doing the #minipond hobby, this species has much greater potential than #medaka.

    Many of the traits you see in medaka comes from 300 years worth of development while #wcmm have only been explored as a #pondfish for maybe 10-15 years. But in terms of desired qualities, #tanichthys hits pretty much every single note unlike the many drawbacks of medaka.

    Anyone doing miniponds should try them!

  3. For the past 3 months since dropping #medaka, I've been trying several different species, and I think I have finally settled on a favorite: #endlers. They have proven to be incredibly hardy, productive, healthy and beautiful. They remind me so much of #wcmm in form of care and ease of breeding in all aspects (except cold hardiness).

    As secondary focus, I'll be heavily invested in WCMM for my pond hobby.
