How feasible is it to do an update here on the forum, would need some IT expert to help, so we can have a section for pond and fish. When you register you give pond details, and filter set-up etc in pre set fields, also we have section for fish detail you can have per pond, with size classification etc. Think the "fish register" could help every owner too, could track fish on there. Could even do it with pictures....any thoughts?

One 82 cm Japanese bred Yamabuki female and I had to use three male Chogoru Purachina's to do the trick, as two of them battled to get the eggs out due to the size of the female.

The Japanese say the best spawning time is during the full moon phase. Is it a boy or a girl? To determine the sex ...
