Comprehensive guide to medaka varieties: Youkihi, Miyuki, Sanshoku, Lame, and other popular breeds with selection tips.
Medaka selective breeding has accelerated dramatically, producing hundreds of varieties distinguished by body color, scale properties, fin shape, and body form.
Youkihi: Brilliant vermillion. The variety that sparked the medaka boom. Enhanced by dark containers and carotenoid-rich food. Miyuki: Silver-white body sheen (taigeiko). Full-body specimens command premium prices. Best viewed from above. Sanshoku: Red, white, and black — like koi in miniature. Each fish has unique patterns.
Lame: Iridescent scales that sparkle in sunlight. Hirenaga: Extended fins for elegant appearance (avoid strong current). Daruma: Shortened body, round shape — challenging to breed.
