While culling through the kohaku spawning I found these two, not the best quality, but not to bad a size as they are only 4 months old! To give you a idea on size the culling net is 11" in diameter

The photo are taken with my mobile phone so they are not of the best quality.

They would grow very well if I had the space, think I would be able to get them to 18" by the spring, the only trouble is I will have a loads coming in and probably will hold them back with the numbers I have to grow on, think I need more ponds :lol:

Hi Gazza

Yes, they are coming along well, as always the big ones never have the nicest of patterns, will try and take a few photo's of some of the better ones next time I go through the pond.
