This is what you can expect with volumes like that:

That must be the ultimate excitement (ok, after.. mmmmm, only a few other things) to get that first glimpse of once fairly small koi when added, while lowering the water level after a while to harvest.

Yes Paul

You are spot on we see this from time to time when we harvest our brood stock. As well as the G1 pond at 11.5mil/l.

I will take some photos when we harvest our brood stock and G1 over the next month or two and post them here.

Hi Collin hoe lyk dit met 'n updated photo?

Is daar al water in?

Hi Wayne

Yes, it was full but we are harvesting it this week. We ad some fry in to it from January up to first of March. So the olds koi in G2 is 3 months and the other is 1 month old. I will post some pic’s soon.

Here is a Showa that we grow for a client free of charge from the end of the George show last year till the end of December 2008 please take it to consideration that the Showa first where kept in QT for three months and then added to G1 this koi spend only 6 moths in G1 & G2 over winter and Spring. When we received the Showa it looked like a Kohaku and it was 48cm.

This photo was taken after we harvest it from G1.



And this photo after we harvest it from G2 at 68cm



And the worst is the client never even said thank you or let me know if he received the showa at the airport.

Pragtig, ek sou baie bly gewees het. Lyk soos 'n mannetjie.

No it's female for sure but needs to bulk up.
