I snapped a few pics last night as the fish were devouring an orange. You can tell how much they have grown! Before long I am going to net them and get good pics and lengths also.

Too funny Pam. In the first orange pics the orange looks to eat them, now they are twice as big!!! Little piglets!!

Jackie it is amazing how fast they are growing!! America the butterfly kohaku was 4" in Dec. I am estimating her size at over 14". Halloween is right there with her as well. Herculese the one that lost his red is dwarfed by them now :lol: Heiko tells everyone I am feeding them steroids!! There has to be something to the Dianichi and Hikari together. I am sold on it :)

Busy I buy my food off the internet. The local guy has only Sho Koi and the first I bought off him went bad fast with bugs. I buy the Dainichi Premium which is for growth and color. The Hikari Gold is for the same. I also add Hai Feng Quick Grow. I mix all 3 together and feed them. I guess they like it :lol: I can't wait for Luke to get back from the UK. When I started feeding Dainichi and Hikari he said it would be intersting to see how it works on them.

Hey Cinn,
Those pics DID come out good. It is hard to believe those guys have grown that much.

Terri I have been stunned by the growth. People who hasn't seen them in awhile are shocked as well! I didn't know they grew that fast :lol: They are healthy for sure!

Merlin thanks. I love to watch Butterfly Koi swim with their long fins. A lot of people don't like them but there are some of us that do :)
