I am going to start again by growing these in my mud pond and selling my other fish . I could not believe my eyes when at the farm last week not just a few but several hundred of such high quality fish that they would win any show in the US .
I will send some photos tomorrow of the parent fish . The fish will be landing in Toronto in an HR . so should be here in another four hrs .
Regards
Eugene

Unfortunatly not till May . Till then I will keep them in my heated 8000US gal greenhouse pond . Problem is the heating costs it is going to cost me 5g for the winter so that is why a larger number it simply cuts down on cost as well as getting a better final selection .

Eugene...

Glad you're back safe... but, I'm a little put out you didn't call! Need any help unbaggin' those pretty babies? (no really, I'm serious!)

Oh yeah, sure, it's okay to call us when they are big and heavy to pull out of the pond but not when they are small... (j/k)

Kind Regards,
Terri

Eugene, You got all 60? Wow!

Some photo study while in the greenhouse pond would be a great enjoyment for me.

Good growing.

I did get one for Ian to pull out of mud pond next year and it is 6year old 84 cm sanke but that is a storey in itself . Fish did not arrive till after 10pm air Canada cargo handlers delayed everything for 3 hr .
