The swedish breeders are at it again, here are some pics of this years pond fry, not so big yet but I hope you can see them, little brownies!





















And a closeup!

Oooh I can see them Anette! Who're the parents this time?

Oh dear... I know Comet is a female, and Gullmer, Goldie and Angus are males...

Comet must be tired out then
Congrats- exciting!!!!!!They look so cute and big already

There are hundreds of them! Exciting! I wonder how many of them will survive. Any calicos!? Can't wait!

I see them,I see them!!!
Gosh Anette,the Goldfish Fertility Gods must be quite happy around your house!

CONGRATS!!!!!

Congrats!! all the pond space looks like its doing them wonders! Theyre so big already.

They certainly do look big already!
Congrats :-)

Its always nice when they start to colour and you can see how they're forming :-)

Thanks! Yes I think the pond is the best place to breed goldies, the fry I have had out in pond grew faster than fry indoors. I guess pond water is nutricious and the fry gets very hardy out in pond. They learn how to survive and to hide from the bigger hungry fish.

How do so many survive though?
Is it a special shallow part or something?
Mine always get eaten if I dont scoop them out!

Wow, your guys have been busy again, Annette! Good for you, they look so happy and healty. And of course, leave it to me to figure out what those blueish things are on the pictures. Took me until picture 3 to notice that that is pond netting....

Yes I should have explained about the pond net....

When they are tiny they live in a shallow part of the pond, there are stoes and plants and they hide well there. When they grow bigger they move out into the deep and someway they manage.

I don't expect all these fry to survive, last summer I had 18.

oh, they're so cute

well...here we go again

they look so nice..

congrats

Congrats Anette! They are so cute. I am excited to see them grow!

Thanks! I see some pale/grey ones, wonder if they are calicos!? Exciting!

If it's a sunny day I can take pics of them, they are more visible then!

Well I've been away for a couple of days and the fry have really grown!

I managed to get pics of the biggest pale one!
