What to get that special Mom for Mother's Day? What kind of koi related things would you suggest?

[jnorth]

My Mom is not into koi but if she was I would probably try to find a nice koi themed handbag or blouse.

How about a nice piece of artwork....

You can give her the tshirt from Champkoi...

How about the Koi slate shown on the auction above to benefit Project KHV.

fishnet stockings

This mom would like a vortex filter with a really big pond to go with it. My fish are so HUGE that they really do need a bigger pond. The back yard pond used to look big but now that the fish have grown so much, it looks dinky.

Yesterday I think the best mother's day present happened of all though. The county took the rest of my paper work, stamped it and sent it on to the next step for my pottery studio. It should be done in about 8 weeks!!! I need to have it up and running so the entry for the Amazing PMS/Bakki contest is done by the end of July.
Pot ON brothers and sistas!!

An exotic lily or lotus for the pond; a gift certificate from mom's favorite koi breeder or dealer; koi artwork from prints to paintings to scrolls and sculpture (check this out: http://cgi.ebay.com/Set-of-4-KOI-Coasters-Clearance-price_W0QQitemZ7412097208QQcategoryZ25QQrdZ1QQcmdZ ViewItem);
koi jewelry from hair clips to pendants; a silk kimono with koi and lily motif; lovely koi pattern porcelain plates, vases, ginger jars, pitchers, etc....

I can think of more, but that's what I want.

But my wife is A mother of 2 and last weekend I bought her a brand new 8500gph pump so we can enlarge the stream (which she worked on today ), raise the sidewalls on the main pond (which I've been doing all day ), dig it deeper and wider (which I'll be doing tomorrow ) so she can get bigger/better fish . Never should've taken her to that damn Koi Show in the big city. Now she really IS hooked
