Bjorn...there is 30 koi and goldies in there and about 40 fry. my ponds a puddle compared to yours, and im going to give away and/or sell alot of them this fall and next spring before the next spawn.
DrCase.. it use to be theyd be all around me till the camera came out,then theyd scatter, now it seems that the fry cant get a picture taken because the big guys come and stir the waters surface and be camera hogs.

Those are some nice looking fish. I really like that white one with the yellow or orange patch on its back. You going to sell them on this site? I'll take some of your grow outs off your hands, but no goldfish. I think I have around 100 goldie fry and alot are starting to change color. I catch and give away almost on a daily basis now.

Nice fish. Are you going to be bringing them inside again like last year or now that the pond is complete leave them outside in the winter?

nope...theyre spoiled and will be spending the winter in their second home. the ones i still have anyways.

Airic... i dont know how i'd get any to you.. overnight shipping would be the only option and thats kinda pricey isnt it?

I'm not sure what the shipping charges are ($60?) but with a good number of fish the cost may not be that bad. It would be sort of fun to compare size and color over time between fish in two different types of environments from the same litter (?). What is the right term?

The medium sized dark orange fish with the long white tails, are those koi or gold fish? (They are my favorite)
The warmth of the sun for pardon
The song of the birds for mirth
One's closest to God's heart in a garden
Than anyplace else on earth!
