It's OK I guess.. after all..I'm fond of goldfish which are basically just carp.. :-\
I raised mine from just little fry and a few are probably 10" by now.. Most people think large goldfish are ugly fish, but I think they're quite beautiful..
The gold and white ones are koi and the others plain goldfish known as comets.
The big koi is about 13" or was last summer and most gf are now about 8-10"
These pictures are two years ago when the pond got some killer algae in it that killed about 7 in a few days.. I have 15 left.
Trying to catch them is NO FUN.. That little net I used when they were babies just bends over like catching a St Bernard in one.. LOL
