Top end ranchu is for those who has too much money to waste, a beautiful ranchu is "crafted" by the hobbist himself/herself since the baby stage....

Even if you can afford those over-priced fish, it'll be a waste if you can't handle them. we are many many years behind on the skill level comparing to the japanese.... Some people may think they are very skilled but in actual fact, they aren't....

Those who read this and yet has experience learning from japanese masters should know what i'm talking about.
