A rare Medaka that glitters like crystal. Its patterns are very intricate, to the point where it is often called the ''Medaka Asthete.''
Some merchants will claim that these Medaka will lay a crystal pearl under certain extreme conditions and that this pearl is both an item of great price and a sign of quality. This has made these fish very sought after by people from all walks of life and caused their market value to soar.
However, this is just amusing to the fishermen, who know the inside story: That object is merely a Loach Pearl that the fish ate by accident.
