interesting beginnings Can't Post
Hi everyone. I am new to this but here goes. I was wondering if anyone has got into koi keeping through interesting circumstances.
I used to keep goldfish and the like. My neighbours father worked for a courier firm and turned up on my doorstep one day with a bag of small koi. The garden center he was delivering to was closed so he had been told by his boss to throw them away! I put them straight into my pond as they were suffocating and dying. I lost half of them but the rest are doing fine two years later. I have been hooked ever since. Everyone seems to send me their waif and strays. They may not be as beatifull as many i have seen here but i love em all!
I have had to rebuild a bigger pond which i will post piccies of when i do some. 4,200 gallons. I only have a few goldfish left as i am now hooked on koi.
Any interesting stories, i would love to hear them
Niki

Said I would put a picture on. It looks a bit bleak but thats just the time of year. Its 14 by 7 by 5 deep. The fish were a bit camera shy though, so i will post them another time.
