Ian and I have been rather busy the past few..um.. months, so we apologize for not being around the board very often. Things are slowing down a little and I hope we can both get caught up with everyone here.

Ian took some photo's last evening (and 1 month ago which I didn't have time to get to) so here's a look at the Nisei Koi and Lotus Land Koi we have here... as usual there's some splashing going on :grin:

Nisei Koi, these are 1 and 2 year olds... some great fish in here (a few I hate to part with..... 'sigh')

Lotus Land, tosai from Brady... now these wonderful fish have been here for about 1 month and boy what a long month! The airline screwed up (what else is new???? :mad: ) and these babies were really in a bad way when we opened the boxes. Took a lot of TLC and a few treatments for 'this and that' to get them back into good health. Finally they are kickin' it into high gear and looking terrific! (.. we did lose a few sadly but at least it wasn't all of them)
Still in training for picture taking so they are still a bit shy...

I like the one in the middle of pic #6, it looks like there are plenty of nice ones. Could you get pics of the 2 you're thinking about and tell us which one you pick and why as a little Koi101 class?
