Here's Moose and Midge

These 2 are going to grow fast if they keep eating the way they have been.

Those 2 are the biggest of my new crew. They're about 12 - 14". Midge is the biggest eater of the new 7. Loves her shrimp that girl. She has good taste.

They're really pretty. They won't outgrow the pond, will they?

Speaking of shrimp...have you seen any small fry, yet?

They better not outgrow the pond. It should house 7 full grown koi with no issues.
No sign of baby fish yet.

Beautiful fish! I notice you feed them pellets. My fish don't seem to like them. I've gone back to the flakes. Mine are fancy goldfish. Maybe they aren't gourmets!

You could try some frozen food for them too glasslass. My indoor goldies like the cubes of frozen brine shrimp and bloodworms. Fancy goldies should have sinking pellets, not the floating kind you buy for koi. My fancies like flakes too, along with sinking pellets and the frozen food to give them variety.
