Interested in Chagoi???

Hi Jaco
Is it feasible for you to arrange a blow by blow progress report and pictures of the development of these Chagoi? From the breeding pair, the spawning, the fry etc. (sort of like from sperm to worm so to speak).
I will be very interested in this process and will really appreciate such information.

I will try and do that, promise.
Would like to breed them this weekend.

I will follow it up with Jaco to hear when they will be ready. Looking forward to it since many people have new ponds now. Think it will be great fun to share info on here as they grow

Been thinking twice about this, how do we compete with the okes that buy manda nashiki and whatever else ????

Some of these things are so expensive, guess if we want it bad enough we shud fork out huh???

Seeing you're doing it already guess it would probably only be fair I guess....lol

Yes, I understand that stuff is very expensive but since I am almost never home mine gets food only 1s a day (sometimes twice). I use Hikari food and on weekend they get a mix of clay/powder vitamins/garlic. My son in Kempton is breeding silk worms and crickets for his dragons, so maybe I will get a few a Xmas present.

I will add about 4 of the Koi to my pond. 2 will remain in QT and the other 2 in main pond. Will feed all the fish the same food but I am looking forward to see the difference in growth between the 2 ponds.
