Pink Sapphire Medaka Rice Fish

Pink Sapphire Medaka Rice Fish (Oryzias latipes) — USA Bred

A rare, sought-after strain rarely found in U.S. collections. Pink Sapphire Medaka combine a soft pink-orange blush with a shimmering metallic blue sheen — best appreciated from above in natural sunlight, where their colors seem to shift and glow like a living gemstone.

Hardy, easy to care for, and perfectly suited for both indoor aquariums and outdoor patio ponds, Pink Sapphire Medaka are just as beginner-friendly as they are collector-worthy. Because this strain is still limited in availability, stock sells out quickly.
