We just finished up a bunch of water changes on all the fry tanks.....moved all the PinoyZebra/Pinoy Leopard fry to the 60 gal.....I'm thinking they won't all be in there too long....growing good, and there's a ton of them..... ;D

I've got to redo some things with my tanks. I am going to move my 46 bowfront into the basement with the rest of the tanks.  I need the space upstairs. :o I going to have to cull some fish that are not panning out to make room for the next batch of Koi that are looking real good at pea size. ??? Then I have to set up a Mana X pair and possibly a  Plat pair. I need to diversify. My LFS keep asking me what other types of Angels I can get for him. ; |^| I can't wait for the Blue Marbles to start pairing off. Lots of work to do. ::)

He likes them nickel size. Says the customers don't want to spend money on the bigger fish. For now he is happy with the Koi but just in case business picks up I want to have something else to offer him. Too bad there are no swaps here like in the midwest. All they have is auctions at the meetings and most clubs have one big swap like event a year. That stinks.

Sure send some. I will mix them in with his next order.  Might be a while tho.  I just sold him 60 Koi last week.  Don't know how long it will be before he needs more. [emoji2]
