    I've got a 380 litre vat so that would have to do me but as rs has shown with a lot of hard work a small volume of perfect water you can still grow fry on 5 is the maximum I would try like . Fred does that blackpool place send fry in small numbers or do you buy bulk

    If you can keep good water quality in a large pond there is no difference with a grow on is there? Just set filters up for it you can make moving beds ect all the same just to size, mine will be seive, nexus, very fine seive then some sort of veg filter like chamber with chickweed and lillys, then I feed chickweed back to larger koi, it grows really fast in the summer

    You buy them in 5s mate. Then 10s and so on. And they have different price ranges.
    Ie bigger size means more money. When you order them online. After you have paid.
    You then have to ring them up for the delivery. Two days in the week I believe they deliver. Tuesday's and Thursdays I believe. And they always deliver before 12 o'clock dinner time.
    I always ask if they can throw in the mix say a chagoi. And if they have any. They try lol

    It's great watching them grow. Wondering all the time what they look like. When they grow.
    This lot I have now. They where the small st I have bought. 1 1/2 inch to 2 inch. I normally bought at 4 to 6 inch.
    I had to take the air dome off and put a grating over the bottom drain. So that they did nt end up in the filters
