Title: Sunday Morn'n coffee time.
Post by: Mugwump on November 23, 2014, 04:47:55 AM

Coffee is indeed good. Lots of fish room work today.WC today and then again on Tuesday. Then I am off to the DC area for Thanksgiving dinner and the weekend. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I may have to make a quick trip up and down I-95 though as I have some fry at a critical stage and need to feed them. ???

I have an auto feeder that I may set up with some of Captain Bob's Egg Fu Young as they just started on crushed flake. ::)

I'll leave Wednesday and come back Sunday. ;D

I was not intending this spawn but since it happened and the parents raised it I let it be. 

Good thing is I will get some light Koi types out of them and the local pet shops are looking for marble type fish so they will take them. ;D ;D ;D

They also throw Smokey Paraibas and regular Paraibas which I will work with. 8) Weird genes in this pair. :o

Well, the coffee's not bad. Ran out of 1/2 & 1/2 so used milk and I think I've really gotten hooked on 1/2 & 1/2 over the last year.

Gotta run to the box stores...early. Need a bit more insulation to finish the ceiling in the new workshop. It was stinkin' cold working out there yesterday and it was even worse when I realized I was short on insulation so I threw in the towel a little early out there. Supposed to be warmer today so hopefully I can get this done. The new bandsaw should be here Tuesday night and shop for a small woodstove week after turkey day!

A quick WC and I'm out the door.

I got these from you when they were youngsters.  I was buying some Smokey P's and you threw in some extras. Remember I sent you pictures a few weeks ago via email.  Jogging your memory now? lol You mentioned they were from Mike Gibbs line?

Yes, but the smokey must have been added from your end, as I never crossed the smokey into any Koi lines...I did cross the Koi to the Plat blue Gm ghost veil tho....as shown above....so if from me, those would throw..

Gm/g - S/S - +/pb - Koi

2.5%   g/g - S/S - +/pb - Sunset
6.25%   Gm/Gm - S/S - pb/pb - Koi Paraiba
6.25%   Gm/Gm - S/S - Koi
12.5%   Gm/g - S/S - pb/pb - Koi Paraiba
12.5%   Gm/g - S/S - Koi
12.5%   Gm/Gm - S/S - +/pb - Koi
25.0%   Gm/g - S/S - +/pb - Koi
6.25%   g/g - S/S - pb/pb - Platinum Paraiba

I think that Koi came from Mike Gibbs line. The attached pictures does the make no justice. But it is a Koi of some sort. BTW this fish is huge. You can't tell from this picture.

Let me clarify.  You are correct this fish does not have smokey.  The female is a smokey. He was one of the throw ins.

That Koi pic looks like a blue Koi....Gm/+ S/S......those are super good crosses back into a Koi line...the crosses tend to bring a more reddish cap back.... ;D
