hope my koi get hungry soon.

Yes, mine are showing color, that shows you how long i have let it
slide. I am having trouble moving them from a pond to a small
aquarium. What a fate. I can't find any takers and i hate to kill
them. Jammer

Last couple of years I have bred fantail goldfish in my lily pond. First
year with orandas I offered them free, only one person showed up. Next year
I had moors and since I didn't have too many I didn't make the offer. So
this year the winter survivors and some of the ones I had inside I've been
selling for $5 a piece. One lady took 3 orandas and 1 moor and I got a
pound of medicated food (yes it was fresh, I was there when they purchased
it just 2 weeks before) that sells for over $10/lb. Seems offering them for
sell or swapping was the way for me to go. ) ~ jan
