I am very fortuante that, not one scale was knocked loose. All the eggs were collected by my micro-screen in my filter, other than the ones that were eatten. I did a 25% water change already, and will do another in a few hours, and probably one later tonight, as well as a few tomorrow as well. I am on well water so frequent water changes are quite easy.

When I get to a point where I can selectivly breed, my idea was similar, I can divide my pond as well.

I would have thought my fish would have spawned quite a bit earlier in the year as my water temps have been above 72 for at least 2 months, with yesterday getting up to 82. After I did the massive water change yesterday, it dropped to 76.

I did lower the water level in my pond last night as I suspected they might continue what they were doing yesterday morning, and I didn't want to loose another to jumping out.

My 20" Hi-Utsuri (the main fish that spawned I believe) has had a huge pot belly since I bought her last Oct. Now she looks really good after releasing her eggs. I am sitting here looking at filling out the paper work for the Sac. show, thinking I might bring fish now. After loosing the Kiko (my avatar) the other night, that turned me off from showing as it was the main reason I was going to show.
