koi carp..

Postby Craig on Sat Nov 13, 2004 9:01 am

yeah jay man, i keep ghost koi in a pond outside, i had a showa (spelling?? lol) and a kin ki, but the both died of illness a few months ago before i had to re stock.

i really wanted to keep some mirror carp (real old english carp) but they get way to big.

i did manage to find a full scaled mirror ghost koi, a party scaled mirror ghost and a leather all in the same store. lol (i got a common scaled too, for the full set)

you into koi then J?
