    Visit to Japan!

    Hi Guys

    luckily I was given the opportunity to visit Japan as part of my university work placement. I have managed to make some videos of the breeders i visited, which some of you might like to see? Have posted a link to the first video below, there are five parts to the trip, all view-able on my YouTube channel.

    Many thanks

    Watched all 5 of them - brilliant.

    What breeders were they in each vid?

    In the last video there's a Showa with red eyes - So striking I haven't a clue what the rest of it looks like, couldn't take my eyes off its eyes!

    Some dodgy mixing half way through the first vid, but I'll let you off that, the images were superb throughout and great editing.

    I’ll have a watch through any try and see the Showa you’re referring to, and we visited over 40 breeders I reckon, too many to list. Might be able to remember Fish from certain breeders though.

    Cheers

    Showa on the left at 55 seconds into video 5

    Edit: Watching it on a different screen I'm not so sure, but on my main PC screen the eyes looked bright red.
