GODZILLA MEDAKA (Oryzias latipes)
WHAT YOU RECEIVE
• 1 live Godzilla Medaka juvenile
• Unsexed juvenile
• Aquaphoria-bred in the United States
LINEAGE & ORIGIN
Our Godzilla breeding group was imported directly from Japan. The juveniles offered here are U.S.-bred offspring from that imported parent group. Japanese hobby references identify Godzilla as a Nidaime Aqua Boy line developed from Bokubu × Crocodile and valued for its dark pigmentation with green to blue-green external shine.
APPEARANCE & DEVELOPMENT
Godzilla juveniles continue developing as they mature. External shine, black pigmentation, body depth, fins, and overall expression can change with age, lighting, container color, environment, and genetics. Exact sex, final grade, exact pattern, and final adult appearance are not guaranteed.
CONDITION
Healthy and active at time of listing. Juveniles are sold unsexed. We do not sell visibly weak or compromised livestock.
