MEDAKAPEDIA / BATCH 008
Ten distinct historic names.
Traits in context.
Ornamental Medaka histories from the 2002–2010 Japanese breeder archive: black-gold small-eye, silver, sky blue, Kurenai, albino Miyuki, internal light, pink, large-eye and Nobunaga line selection. Each entry identifies its historic origin, Japanese label, source evidence and unresolved pedigree and release details.
This is documentation of ten named historical lines and derivative trait combinations, not ten independently DNA-verified genetic strains. The Kirameki name is disambiguated from unrelated later breeder lines.
