so today my two additions came by mail. After a few hours of adjusting period I put them in my indoor tank where they will be spending the winter.

They are stil very jumpy :)

haha yea it's way better than the last batch alright! @cas that one still in a bucket... no taker yet.


@Dave 54 the water they came in was pretty nasty by the time I got them, filled with poop eventhough they were fast for a day. I put them in a bowl and add my water to it about 4 times until i put them in my tank. But yea, they are healthy and exploring their new home now.

Great looking fish! I don't spend extra on mine, after they are in the pond, they blend in with everybody else. Too much water room to hide in.

hahah @Dave 54 Yes I agree! But I just did it yesterday. I'm having a lot of problem with black algae, it made everything look dirty. I love the fuzzy green ones though. None of my fish will eat those algae and I tried hard to clean them (hand clean them) but they spread to the gravel and I couldnt hand pick all the gravel :oops: the part of the tank in the picture is at the corner where I didnt pick the gravel with hair up yet... it's better than it looks, i promise :)

@addy1 I dont have as much fish as you do so I can tell each and everyone of them so I'm pretty picky of the ones i put in the pond.

@peter hillman I like how it's white at the tail part. I like the white one because I dont have white in my pond yet and I like the red cheek!

@Faebinder They do have some nice ones. It took me a long time to decide to buy because the price is high, but I hope to have babies from them with lots of interesting colors!

The last fish I bought from them is a yellow watonai that turned orange in summer and now turning back to yellow in winter... fascinating....

I just got a new CO2 tank so my plants just start growing again (they died off ;( )

The fish are not scared of me anymore. Happy with my choice.
