If you've seen the pictures in my other post, you'll know I couldn't walk away empty handed! We took 45 minutes, but finally narrowed the choices down to 3 of the 6-8 inch koi at Shekinah. All the fish were beautiful, but we were looking for a unique pattern/type that we have never seen anywhere. They put fish in a smaller holding tub for you to choose, so here was our final 3 to decide between. What fish is your favourite? I'll tell you what one we bought tomorrow night :) Dan, if you read this, no telling!!!

I pick the orange and white one but I bet you bought the white one with gold on it's back more interesting.
I like the white one with the gold back. :)
I LOVE all three of them!!!! Especially the one on the right though (facing left).
Congrats :)
Well, it has been an awful morning. Since my pond is covered well to prevent raccoons from getting in, there is an EXTREMELY small chance that a fish can jump out. Of all fish to decide to jump and coincidentally find one of those small gaps in the cover, guess what one I found on the grass this morning?
The red and white one :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
What a perfect fish to have lost and what a lot of money. It went in the pond finally after dark last night so I only got to watch it for about 20 minutes via a flashlight :(
I'm so sorry to hear this Sylvia! :'( :'( :'(
That is so sad! :( He was so beautiful.
wow that sucks! Sorry to hear that. I would of picked the red/white too, it is/was a very nice looking fish!
He was a striking fish. I'm sorry :'(
Thanks guys. I have NEVER gotten so upset about loosing a fish. When I found it I even threw it in a bucket of water, opening and closing the gills, hoping it would be like resuscitation. Not so.
If only I had gotten up an hour earlier. It must have just dies when I found it.
You know, the only place I could loose that amount of money for nothing is the casino...I'm still baffled at how it happened. We're designing a raccoon proof, jumping fish proof solution after the meeting tonight.
