	INTEGRATED LIVESTOCK-FISH PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
		Ricefish integration is suitable for development in areas outside of the present rice growing scheme where optimization of land use would result in better income and reduce risks to small scale farmers.
		Ricefish farming system has been practiced in Southeast Asia since it was introduced from India 1,500 year ago (Tamura, 1961).
		Although the current techniques to ricefish farming system can be modified to improve production, it is important to note that fish is secondary to rice, which is still the main component of the system.

		A few years ago, Japanese Ricefish could be found in modest numbers in the trade, usually appearing in the shops during the spring and summer months along with various North American natives such as Sunfishes, Rosy Red Minnows, Rainbow Shiners and Redbelly Dace.
		As far as I am aware, glowing Ricefish (and Zebra Danios) cannot be imported into the UK for the aquarium hobby but some are legitimately brought in for laboratory research into molecular genetics.
		The female Ricefish does not scatter her eggs but instead carries them as a small cluster which hangs from her genital opening.

		Ricefish, measuring less than two inches and commonly kept as pets, react rapidly to contaminated water.
		The fish, which is pale orange, pushes its face close to the surface when it experiences breathing difficulties or simply dies in the manner of canaries in gas-filled mines.
		They plan to expand their deployment of the ricefish soon.

		The other two species, the springfish and the ricefish (or riceditch killifish), have small, functional eyes.
		The ricefish, which superficially resembles the toothed minnow, is found in streams and swamps of the SE United States.
		The cave fish and their relatives are classified in the phylum Chordata, subphylum Vertebrata, class Osteichthyes, order Cyprinodontiformes, family Amblyopsidae.

		ricefish to me are oryzias but I've also seen gambusia listed as ricefish before and I'm sure others fall in that nomenclature as well.

		The creature, with dark stripes that contain fluorescence genes taken from red coral, was displayed publicly at the biotechnology exhibition held recently in Taipei, the Taikong Corp. said in a statement.
		Taikong first developed a green fluorescent ricefish using jellyfish genes in a 2001 co-operation project with National Taiwan University fisheries scientist H.J. Tsai.
		The company has begun marketing the green fluorescent ricefish since May, after spending two years researching and developing technology to ensure the fish is completely sterile.

		The FWB has circumvented a pet ban by buying an aquarium, and is now researching which fish she should stock it with.

		But in the end, four heroic ricefish were sent up on Columbia in 1994, and several hundred of them came down.

	Environmentalists Alarmed at Genetically Engineered Fish That Glows (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Environmenalists say that if the formerly colourless fresh water ricefish -- which now glows green in the dark -- is released into nature, it could wreak havoc on the ecosystem.
		Taikong has already launched a second transgenic swimmer, a fluorescent purple zebra fish that has been injected with a gene found in coral, and hopes it and the ricefish would swim into aquariums all over the world.
		Each transgenic fish costs T$600 (US$17), compared to T$20 for a colourless ricefish costs.

		Environmenalists say that if the formerly colourless fresh water ricefish - which now glows green in the dark - is released into nature, it could wreak havoc on the ecosystem.
		Taikong has already launched a second transgenic marine creature, a fluorescent purple zebra fish that has been injected with a gene found in coral, and hopes it and the ricefish would swim into aquariums all over the world.
		Each transgenic fish costs US$17; about 30 times more than a colourless ricefish.

		These glow-in-the-dark ricefish - from the genetics lab, not outer space - are set to be sold here in Singapore.
		If approved, the hardy ricefish, which contain glow-in-the-dark jellyfish fluorescence genes, could become the first genetically modified (GM) animals on sale here.
		The animal's creators, Taipei-based pet store chain Taikong Corporation, say that the fish, named TK-1, have been on the market in Taiwan, Japan, Hong Kong and Malaysia for about three months.

		Once close, he sprays an apparent "toxin" at the female, which makes her (and occasionally him) collapse and enter an "unconscious" state.
		The male then hauls the cataleptic female about the web, repositions her, and finally inseminates her while she is still "knocked out." At the time of mating, a male Malabar ricefish will dart toward a nearby female with near-lightning speed.
		We will argue that the robber flies, penduline tits, funnel-web spiders, and ricefish may all have something very important to tell us.

		In contrast, the newly released GloFish™ were developed by gene splicing in the lab.
		The Zebrafish, along with the Ricefish (Medaka sp.), have long been popular as scientific research subjects, with millions bred for experimentation and study.
		Some years back, scientists found that by splicing a gene from certain other species, usually jellyfish or corals, they could create Zebrafish that fluoresced in the presence of specific water-borne toxins, a useful tool for pollution studies.
