Grow-Out event	Can't Post

First of all,I would like to say thank you for all those guys that came to visit my pond.Hope this will encourage you to keep kois and bring more people to keep kois.I spoke to Ricky today about doing a Grow-Out event.He is very supportive about it and gave me the green light.Now its up to you guys to support this event to show that you are a koi lover or talk only lover..... Laugh

Have not finalise the details with him,but here are some things that were discussed.
Price -$500 koi that will come with a Cert of the farm
Duration -Koi will be kept for 6 months in your own pond,then we will invite the dealer to come over to judge the winner
Type of koi-yet to decide,maximum of 10 koi(unless more participants)
Prizes-There will be prizes given to the best koi and Runner-up koi(good prizes)

So please reply if you are interested in this event.Its not because of the prizes but in 6 months I will think,WHY I didnt choose this koi or that koi etc.Its also good learning experience and fun. Sly

Cifu Kit,
In reply to your questions.....
1)Base on everything meaning Bodystructure,Skin quality,pattern,color etc.The judge will have the final say.He will not know which is whos koi.This is to be fair to everyone.He will judge all the koi together.
2)We are still deciding on which farm
3)We are thinking about gosanke only but which have yet to decide.
4)Will be at Ricky's place.You will only be able to view the photos of the koi only.Then we will draw lot to determine whos 1st to choose and so forth.As for me,I will choose last to be fair to everyone.
5)The more people participate,we might have a return air-ticket.Oops!My mistake,we have a prize for 3rd also.

not fair to judge koi base on pattern i think.. this will make the choosing part a headache..
2)We are still deciding on which farm
will suggest momotaro or sakai..
3)We are thinking about gosanke only but which have yet to decide.
sanke n showa need a longer time to show result.. 6 mth not enough.. kohaku more prefered.
4)Will be at Ricky's place.You will only be able to view the photos of the koi only.Then we will draw lot to determine whos 1st to choose and so forth.As for me,I will choose last to be fair to everyone.
not sure abt choosing koi throu photo.. y not have the real koi? just a suggestion..
5)The more people participate,we might have a return air-ticket.Oops!My mistake,we have a prize for 3rd also.
very attractive price... i dont really mind abt the prize actually.. its more abt the fun.. Sly

Re: [koi@kit] Grow-Out event [In reply to]	Can't Post

Aiya Cifu,
1) When I say pattern,it doesnt mean pattern only.You have to have everything.Just like it doesnt mean you have the biggest koi,you will win.Its overall! The judge will explain why he choose this koi to win etc.
2) We will decide later
3) We will decide later
4) I mean prior to drawing lot,you are not allow to see the real fish,only by photo.After the drawing lot,then you see and choose the fish real!
5)I think the prizes will be ok and if you win you probably end up with a good koi and maybe FREE!

After some discussions,here are the prizes that will be offered(not 100% yet)......

1st Prize- 1 Return Air-Ticket,Trophy and Koi or Aquarium Goodies

2nd Prize- Gift Voucher from BioTropical,Trophy and Koi Goodies

3rd Prize- Trophy and Koi Goodies

4th Prize- Koi Goodies (if we have enough support for this event)

5th Prize- Koi goodies (if we have enough support for this event)

As for which farm the koi will be from,I'm still talking to the dealers.I want to get the best out of the $500 we pay and its not easy to get quality kois for this amount.And also the certificate from the breeder.
