Well you cannot say my fish room, but my bedroom. Just a quick update of my Koi fry. They are about 5 weeks old, bout an inch long and beginning to develop some colouration. When I recieved them from the breeder they were smaller than a grain of rice, but now compare the difference!
The breeder told me that with the parents being Yamabuki Ogon and Platnium Doitsu Ogon, the fry will turn out in five different types buth with either platnium, gold or a mixture of both. Also with two different types of scale patterns.
A month ago the fry lookes like this

But, after a month of constant feeding of Hikari Koi powdered foods and live foods, the growth is amazing. See for yourself!

One of the colouring fry, believed to be a platinum with orange (orenji hariwake) or yellow (yamabuki hariwake) markings.
