Like I mentioned in my other post....I am 26, young, with very little money to invest in nice fish. However, I do want to learn about what is good quality in order to prepare myself for when I drop an investment on a real koi pond and real show quality fish.

Some people can just go at it....I'm gonna have to financially grow a bit before I can be in the advanced category in actuality. I do want to be advanced in knowledge though.

Thanks!
