It seems we have a few common interest, Im a 5 time ms rider although havent done it in a few years, Am running 3 large sps tanks 2 of them 700 gal, and building my 3rd koi pond, Not sure of the gallons but 38x17x40inches deep with a large bog. Not as serious about the koi as not really looking for lineage

Nice and way to go on the MS150.
I done it so far only four times but with Race team bikebarn.
No sandbagging and the fastest we done so far was in '09 with a avg of 29.6 mile p/hr.
Now for the last 2 years I'm battling a injury from a crash, but as of the first of the year back on the bike but only on the trainer.
So far so good.
Coming back to the koi.
They have pond packs and they are good in price even with shipping.
Just check them out.
I might just drop by at your place this week.
Oh YES I forgot to tell you..........it's Diesel (Ben) from marsh. LOL.

Thats a good team to ride with. I rode with bakerhughes team, though we did not ride together. Not as fast as ya, usually arrived the first day between 12;45 and 1;30. Could make lunch break by 9;00 but was not able to handle the hills they really slowed me down. Ill check them again didnt see the packs. having to order some more liner a roll I bought here locally from a guy really lied about the size. just rolled it and measured this morning.

Curious about 2 things: 1) What farm did you get them from? How big were they when you got them?
2) Do you still have some you would be willing to sell?

Actually bought them from a gentleman off craislist, Really nice gentleman who I bought a few previously. When I told him was building 11000 gal pond he made me offer of 50 for $150. When I got home and counted there was actually 74. already had about 40, will end up selecting about 60 of them to put in the pond once they get a little bigger. was really happy nice looking babies. Hes on craigs still probably make you nice deal if you want a bunch. Hes has a great pond in his back yard and these are babies from that.

I bought mine off ebay from a reputable seller! They were 2 to 3 inches when they came in. I purchased a 2 lots to get certain colors and planned on selling the ones I did not want or already had large the same color! I have had them for 3 months and they are mow 4 to 6 inches as some grow faster than others for some reason. I have also found that the males get bigger faster than females! And yes I am selling the ones I do not want and a few are standard and the rest butterfly! When it warms I am going to drain the pond and sort them!

[reeftopia]
