Went to a clients this morning and removed a bunch of 1-2" goldfish babies ... Had lined up a few homes in advance, but looks like we have about 40 extra from this trip ...
I can not make any promises as to what they will develop into. Right now, most are orange, a few are still typical fry brown ... the majority have long fins ...
The "parents" ... who knows who they were LOL ... They have 10 goldfish that are 8-10 yrs old (I cant remember when they bought the house, these fish came with the house), and all about 9-10" in size ... all are long fins ... most of them are solid white, one is solid orange, and two are orange and white ...
Their adult goldfish have been their only fish from day 1, and to the best of my lnowledge, have never had an issue ... As of May, we built a larger pond for them, and added 4 babies that we grew out inside from one of our spawns ... One would want to QT fish from ANY source, only want to point out that none of the fish were exposed to commercial issues.
The babies are FREE ... if you are within a reasonable drive, you are welcome to come here to get some ... or can send some for actual costs of shipping.
