Spawning time has come around again, so the mud ponds have been filling up an are now all ready for this years breeding to commence.

And the good new was that this morning 6th May that both my Showa and Kohaku sets have spawned

Thanks Luke.

Well the good news is that both spawnings have hatched, the Showa spawning looks like they are a very good size for the age along with a good hatch rate. Photo is of the showa spawning, not the best in the world, but gives you a idea.

This is a picture of the Kohaku fry at a week old, these have grown at a alarming rate and there are loads of them as they are all over the pond.

keep the pics coming, Chris - they look great! How many cullings are you planning and at what ages/criteria?

[Eclipsar]

Thanks, will try and take a few more photo's.

Will start culling Kohaku around 6 weeks old, Showa would have been culled at about 3 days old and will be culled again as they grow.
