aquarium and same deal with my SVR, as i'm looking for him, he's looking for me. I'd post a pick cuz it's a read nice one BUT I also went theu the discusting effort to make my water green so a photo wouldn't help. Steve: note to you, when I went green he went black...

In all my dealings with steve have been delighted with his selections and fish have been shipped second day and arrived each time just perfect....no issues.

Man, I love a good Goldfish thread and Russ is right...Portland has a great goldfish show which brings in close to the numbers of the koi show!
Here are some Thai Black SVRs specially selected for growing.There are about 3 inches now...

Goodness. I'm impressed by those and know nothing about the fine points of goldfish.

Forgotten to post pics as I said I would last time...here are 2 fish at nisai/oya(cannot remember) produced from home breeding. Pic is about 2-3 years ago. Bloodline is now lost though.
