I agree!! What could they be thinking?? I've heard of spending a lot of money on rare saltwater fish because they capture them from the wild not breed them, but on an overgrown goldfish? Image

Hey Jay, is that a fact?? Really, what's the average lifespan of Koi?

They also say that Hamsters are supposed to live 3-4 years, but I don't know anyone who had them live much more than 2! LOL :-}~~

Sorry, I couldn't resist!

Oh...ok. That's pretty long for a fish! I guess they keep their scales looking like young fry by using the secret oriental pearl cream!

Recently a koi in Japan that was over 75 years old sold for over a $million. They could trace the origin of it and everything.

Are you joking or did someone really pay $1 million for a 75year old Koi? Dang, hey can somebody pass on the news for me, I have a 200 year old OSCAR, yes VERY RARE, I'm looking for a buyer!
