New Short-tail Ryukins!

    Yay! They're finally here! Yesterday, I went to my LFS and purchased some beautiful, calico, short-tail ryukins. They are in their quarantine tub for the moment, so I can keep an eye on them before I place them into their new, fully cycled aquarium. My LFS has kind of gone downhill over the years, and there was alot of ich in some of the tanks. So, I will be doing a few rounds of ich treatment (its just a simple one -- not too strong) for good measure.
     The ryukins are small, but they don't seem stunned at all. I drew the conclusion that they are probably about 4 or 5 months old. Which is awesome because that means I still have some time to groom them (give them great quality food, water, etc., to allow them to grow into beautiful, healthy, and happy adult fish)! 
     Here are some pictures and a video of them in their quarantine tub -- the roundness of the tub distorts their figures a little bit, so don't get discouraged about the quality of these little chubs! They are great quality, and were a real steal! :)
  






Does anyone have any name suggestions? Let me know in the comments below! :)
