Hello from Bangkok
 

:D Sawasdee and salutation to all,

A big shout out to y'all. My name is Pat and my interest is breeding ranchu and ranchu competition. I would love to meet any of you who are interested in keeping goldfish or ranchu and would love to exchange views and experiences. I am the Managing Director of the Absolute Fisheries locating in Bangkok and we breed ranchu in accordance with the Nichiran standards as observed by the Japanese Ranchu Associations. We are also the official representative of Mr.Kashino and many of the leading breeders in Okayama, Japan. I grew up and went to school in the US. I have been keeping all kinds of aquarium fish for over 30 years. At home I keep about 25 ranchu of all sizes, varieties of gold fish such as Tosakin, Red Long tail-Brown and Matallic Orlandas, Ryukin and Tanjo Orlanda, 8 LaoHans, a bunch of siamese fighting fish and guppies. I also have two dogs (pug), "DC" and "Diana" and a Korat cat, "Pimsaen" , at home. I now live in Bangkok, Thailand.

I look forward to conversing with you all in due course. Thank you and sawasdee krap.

Pat :D
