Some 230,000 goldfish consisting of about 25 varieties were offered at the first auction of the year in this central Japan city, known as a major breeding area, on Jan. 11.
 

Roughly 40 brokers made bids for varieties including "ranchu" and "ryukin" using words unique to the industry as wooden boxes containing goldfish were streamed along a water channel in the auction house. The priciest goldfish was the "sarasa-wakin" variety, which fetched 10,000 yen (about $76) per fish.
