 | Woohoo! I got Fry!~ |
Forever-mango   Fish Addict Posts: 611 Kudos: 586 Votes: 35 Registered: 01-Dec-2003   | Thats right! I got FRY!...what fry you may ask... The 1994 Grand Champion AKA (Australian Koi Association) Koi Bloodlines Koi Fry  The breeder was so generous and gave me about 100 or so of these fry! The Koi fry are are about 3 weeks old, so they have grown since I got them 2 weeks ago. Most are about 15mm but still got some at about 12mm. The fry are yellowish because they have been munching on bbs  The fry outcome should be 90% Platnium Ogon (a.k.a Platnium White) and only 10% Yamabuki Ogon (a.k.a Yellow Gold). Since Ogons (me The Father is a similar looking Platnium Ogon:  And the G/Champ Mother a similar looking and much bigger (21 years old and about 80cm):  The fry are being feed live bbs, finely chopped up live blackworms, crushed Koi Pellets, Powdered foods and sometimes the frozen bbs. The fry are being feed atleast 4 times a day and it seems the constaint feeding is allowing faster growth as well as the development of colours. And today, I purchased some Hikari Koi pellets, I crush them to powder form and the fry seem to love it  Time for some pics. I took yesterday.
