Since they will be driving such a long way at very early in the morning, Mr.Mita's team will have to get ready ahead of time and get the ranchu ready to travel the evening before the competition (and also prepare the food and all too ). The following set you will see Mr.Mita ranchu, his management of the ponds and his ranchu in order to prepare and select the ranchu that he will send to compete the following day. After the selection of the fish is done, you will see Mr.Mita and Mr.Okada taking pictures and checking the pictures of all the ranchu before packing. This is the rule in the entering of the AJRS competition, you will have to present the picture of each of the fish along with the ranchu for identification purposes. You wil also see a picture of Mr.Nattavudh with the ranchu that have been packed and ready for the important journey very, very early the next morning.

The first picture left, below, you will observe all the fish that Mr.Mita had prepared for the AJRS 2004. Try to remember some of them, because you are going to meet them again, but as Champions.
