    Very good information on breeders. Thank you Tim. For me Maruhiro, Marusei, Hiroi are the best value for money breeders and which we can afford. One question what are they spraying on fish? Hydrogen Peroxide for disinfection?

    @rich81090 Před 2 lety

    Are the brood stock kept separate or are they in the circular pond? I like the depth of colour it isn’t just all the big 3. As a video idea when you get back home you could talk about each farm and what they do best etc.
