These are the images I took on May 2, 2009 while visiting Eastern Nishikigoi while in search of a female ranchu.
The overall experience was pleasant. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating.
I was amazed at the size of the ranchus, they were right around seven inches. Unfortunately they were out of my price range. I will wait until they import smaller and more affordable ranchus.
The gentleman stated they would have a shipment in two months. Therefore until that time, I will keep my fingers crossed.
Moreover, the quality of the ranchus was very good, when I compared their ranchus to my current ranchus. The person on the forum was correct, the ranchus are imported from China.

Here is a ranchu from the adjacent tank.

Odd, but this is the same ranchu from above. What a difference in color.
Here is their posted price list for the ranchus
This is one of the indoor aquarium ranchus

This black ranchu is about 7 inches
The last of my ranchu images... hope you enjoyed the images
