I'm sure you didnt mean it too matey, but that came across as a bit rude, especially as the ghost koi is rather similar to the fish in your photo :-\ ;)

We had one around 4 ft at the mother in laws and every year it tried to get out around spawning season.

Used to scare the crap out of the local cats!

no good as you couldn't catch him (its an art, its funny watching people trying to catch a fish who dont know how to, there there for ages) then you turn around and my dogs would be smilling at you (only joking). :P :P

Most I've ever spent on a fish is £3.50, and that included the chips.
