Regular Member Lis. Posted July 24, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) Hi guys So, my fry are getting to a point where it is difficult to keep them. I need them in new homes as soon as I can, but I only want them to go to people who have the space for them, and ideally with knowledge of their needs They are by no means perfect specimens, in fact many of them have imperfect dorsals (more like spikes). There are some ranchus, and some with good dorsals. I'll try to get some decent photos of them soon. I believe that almost all of them will be a light orange colour (some have already started to colour up). If anyone is interested, feel free to comment on this thread, or send me a PM I'd rather people collected them, but I'm sure posting them could be arranged if picking them up is not an option.

Regular Member Kate89 Posted July 24, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted July 24, 2014 Oh Lis I really am tempted! What with everything that's gone on, my plan was to get young fish next, and I know yours are healthy and have had a great start in life. Its just the distance really and whether I'd have time to drive up to collect them, you're in the Midlands aren't you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Lis. Posted July 24, 2014 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 24, 2014 I'm on the Cheshire/Shropshire border I have no idea how to post them, but if you were ever to drive down you could pick one (or more) I have 8 really nice fry (which I'm going to keep for a bit longer to see how they turn out, I'll be keeping one and selling the rest ) and there's 100 ish others that are free. A lot of them have funny dorsals, but there are a number of ranchus in there, and a number of fish with nice dorsals 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member goldfishfanforever Posted July 24, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) Lis on your instagram (I think that's how you spell it) video there was a yellowish one which I am really tempted to get but would need to sort it out with my parents first.

Regular Member Lis. Posted July 24, 2014 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 24, 2014 I haven't got any pictures right now, but I can get some they are still quite small though, so you definitely don't look at them and think "wow" I have a short IG video I took of them the other week these guys won't be available for a bit longer yet though, I'm yet to decide who I want to keep http://instagram.com/p/qewtuwC9ml/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Lis. Posted August 5, 2014 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) These are the babies I'll be selling http://instagram.com/p/rUc2RIi9iv/ And these are just a handful of the 130 babies needing to find new homes I'm getting a lot of interest from people with ponds, so hopefully a good number of them will go to them http://instagram.com/p/rUdFMli9i-/ Edited August 5, 2014 by Lis. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member 4prettyfish Posted August 8, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted August 8, 2014 I just saw your thread Alicia. I'm sorry for you having to rehome your babies. You will find great homes for them. They are adorable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
