These fish are quickly becoming my favorite I fished out about 25 or so fry this morning here is a pic of one and the parents anyone in CT have any would like to trade a few to get a new bloodline.

Yep, Koi swords are pricey! Sell those suckers! :)
 
a friend gave me 10 or so a while ago for free he has about 100 of them in his fish room thx for the compliments I did not know they were so expensive

They have beautiful colors. :clap:
 
I am hoping the whiter male is the father so maybe the pattern will transfer to fry not quite sure if that is how it works or if it just random
 
Aquatic Wonderland has them in stock most of the time and although I can't remember the price, I think it was around $5 each. They carry two different varieties of Koi Sword. I think they are really cool looking.
