Tsumugi Medaka

Bring refined beauty to your medaka collection with the Tsumugi Medaka (Japanese name: 紬メダカ), a graceful lamé variety developed by Mimu Medaka (美夢めだか). Its name, inspired by traditional Japanese silk fabric, reflects the soft shimmer and structural balance that define this line. Each purchase includes 1 male and 1 female, hand-selected for quality and imported with care. Learn more about the Tsumugi Medaka on our Medaka Encyclopedia page. Creator: Mimu Medaka (美夢めだか) Key Traits: Fine silver and gold lamé, soft-toned body, aurora-like glow Suitable View: Side and top view; ideal for both bowls and tanks This strain was first imported to the U.S. in Fall 2024, after acquiring the original strain from its creator, Mimu Medaka at a medaka festival in Fukuoka. In Spring 2025, SNR Korea bred offspring from the original line, which were then re-imported by SNR USA to provide healthy, well-acclimated fish for U.S. hobbyists.
