    Just picked up some Philippine Blue Albino Veils from David Carlson. Real beauties.

    Good luck with your group.

    I have never really been a huge koi fan but people really seem to like them. I am growing out a 100 or so koi babies now. One of my young 1/2 pairs had their first wigglers last week so I would expect to have baby angels running out of my ears before long.

    I like angel fish, much prefer the wild types, but do like some of the smokey's and blues. Not a great fan of the koi's but they are popular. Good luck with them and don't forget the pics!

    By the way this " One of my young 1/2 pairs had their first wigglers " should have read " One of my young 1/2 black pairs had their first wigglers"
