Holy mackerel; Has it been ten years.

I imagine that for many of us we were 10 years younger when we started. Since starting this forum, I have had heart surgery, I now wear an ankle brace and walk with a cane. Needless to say, my get up and go has slowed a lot.

Last year my goldfish breeding efforts when down the tube when the weather heat up so fast last Spring. The two Springs before I was laid up in the hospital and then home recovering. I don't have a lap top so I was off the computer for quite awhile.

Things were looking good this Spring, but during this mild winter, I lost my only female Ranchu and early this Spring before the ponds were set up (and they still are not up and running) I lost my last Phoenix. Both of theses fish have been with me for 15 years, so it is quite a loss. My last Philly Veil I was hoping to mate this year with the Fantails that grew up two years ago, but I really have not looked to see if any of the Fantails are female, for I know that Philly Veil is a male.

To tell you truth it is just hard to get around and do all this stuff, plus the economy has affected what I can buy, plus my twin girls are in their freshman year of college and that is a drain.

A bright spot is that I was at a KOI distributor in Edmond this last weekend and he is getting some Orandas in the middle of May, so I am looking forward to going there and seeing if there are some fish that I would like to own and hopefully breed. He is having a lot of trouble bringing in Goldfish from overseas, so he is looking for someone local, because it seems all the local breeders have stopped breeding, so maybe this is an opening for me if I can get my fish to breed. The weather again has gotten warm quickly and we are already in the 80's (27 Celsius).

As soon as I get my filter running the fish go outside. I have the parts now, and hopefully it will be up and running before the weekend.

Well, we've had our seasons in the sun...

This site will always serve as a "reference" site. No point repeating those old discussions and arguments. Whatever you need, just do a search.

People come, people go. When you decide to come back to the hobby, this site with all the info will still be around. Keeping this website alive is at affordable cost. It has been paid for many yrs in advance anyway, just to let you know.
