kntry I think you got a couple of numbers wrong....
And could you put the Pick number and then the original number with each and not your order of picking them as we can figure out which one was your first pick by its Pick number....
you could even drop the original number after the first post.
i really love your little guy too. it is a bekko right now...maybe not....

Thanks, Bill.

Luke, 48th is the one that people were afraid of because it didn't have any sumi up and the badly split fin. The fin is completely healed with no evidence of the split. She has sumi up in a few places now and that happened in about a 1 month period in water with 0 hardness.

Wow Sandy! Those babies are really growing and changing! 48 is going to be just stunning when she starts filling out. Look at the sumi coming up.

15 has such a demure face--just love that expression and she's got a knockout bod for such a young one.

T180 is a joy to look at. I'm glad you posted your non-contenders. 103 looks like she'll get a nice checkerboard pattern, and I like that chubby bod.

Have they put on much length? Mine have all put on a good inch since arriving. I'm betting yours has too....

I didn't measure them but will in a couple of weeks. They look a little longer but probably not an inch. I just started feeding them about 2 weeks ago. They have doubled in girth! I was surprised at that.

I'm keeping them in slightly green water right now so I don't see them much.

I hope we don't do away with the original numbers as per Luke's mandate. I have a third of the fish memorized by those numbers! All you have to say is #146 and I can see it.

Keep 'er growing, Sandy!

They're growing but I haven't measured them lately. They're getting ready to go into the pool/pond conversion as soon as I get it finished. Hopefully in the next 2 weeks. Right now they're in a 300 gallon stock tank.
