    That’s lovely, thanks for sharing. How much do they sell the 100-150 koi’s for? They look great, good person to share your koi’s with people!

      They sell them for about $200, it's pretty cheap for that many fish and the fish are pretty good quality.

    When do you plan on sorting these? Curious to see the quality when you sort. Can’t wait for that video!

      I'll probably post an update in the next few weeks, i've separated about 10 of my favorite baby Koi to my "keeper" tank. They now range from 2" to 4" in size, most being 3"-4".

    New sub! Love your channel. Inspired to think about an above ground with window.

      Awesome thanks for the Sub, just do it, it totally changes your backyard and the window is a must, the Koi actually love coming to watch you and see what you are doing. Plus you can enjoy your fish way more and see them in more detail than from looking down through the water.

    Hi Zippy buddy the peanuts and the system, the optimum temp for development and growth of fry is 24-26 degrees also i personally wouldn't get rid of any at this stage as they will change a heck of a lot in the coming months and last but not least take it from me bruva growing fry becomes addictive 😂💯🧁👍👍👍

      Totally agree, it's fun to sit and watch them all. I have 2 other tanks I'm setting up to thin out the school as they grow. A 75 gallon keeper tank and a 60 gallon holding tank for the larger ones as I rehome them. I just want to make sure that 110 gallon tub doesn't become over crowded as they grow. So far I'm keeping the Ammonia and Nitrite at bay as the filter matures, it's a balancing act. I believe that filter should easily handle the bio load as it matures.
