Neat little Koi came in with a fantail shipment....

This little dude is awesome! He's totally metallic-yellow! Way cool in-person!

Nah.....

Its just fish at my work. The shipment was calico fantails, and we saw this little dude booting around. We're gonna grow him up a bit before he can go in with the other Koi. He's going to be stellar though!!

Have you ever seen some of the pics of the ones that they have in Japan, they have some that are like a hundred grand or more, unbelievable. Totally cool looking. I would love to have a pond, probably will make one soon.....and im sure it will probably get out of hand like every other project and ill end up with a lake, lol

Ha ha....

But if you had a lake, you could also go fishing!

Yeah, the Japanese people totally take it seriously. Several breedr females are insured for $500,000, and there are hotels in Japan where you can check your fish in as well! Crazy eh?

man Jeff, you should see some of the platinum's at our store! they're awesome! it's a shame we lost about 18 Koi because of an employee treating the fish vats (500 galls MAYBE worth of water) with a treatment for 5000 gallons with Acuclear...


we had to drain the vats btw and lemme tell you THAT was fun lol
