      Follow my LF baby koi development!

      Hello everyone!
      Can sit for hours and just geek koi info on this page

      And now I thought to share with you some pictures of my babies, maybe you can see what might become of them?
      There are about 70 of them.
      They are between 2-3,5cm long, so not that big yet haha

      I have them indoors now, winter is almost here ..
      Wish I had more room for them here in the house.
      They are divided into three aquariums that are at ca120 liters each.

      Here are some pics of the babies which are a bit larger :P Incredibly difficult to shoot them in this bad light ..

      Hello, LinanL,
      Very cute. I notice that most of your babies have a black spot on their foreheads. That is called "chobo sumi" or small sumi (black) and i call it "the mark of the asagi." Your babies have asagi/shusui in their genes, my favorite variety. good luck with your little ones!

      Thank u!
      Oh so good to hear, well i thought that perhaps it was evidence that they have those genes! jippie lycky me :D

      Got a bag of small fry from a breeder here in Stockholm when I bought two larger koi from him.
      So do not know how my baby's parents look like: /

      Shusui is a favorite, will be even more fun to follow their development now!
      Hoping that someone becomes bluish. Can they get it even though they are very yellow / orange now?

      Hey!
      I got the fry from a breeder, and they were probably just a few days old then.

      and I do not know who the parents are.

      They have grown a bit slowly as they have been "squeezed" in a small space.. i think that's the reason.

      So the biggest yet is only 5cm!
      ..but they've got a bigger tank and filter now
