I had no idea they sold for so much. I just thought that they were a pretty type of carp people put in little koi ponds in their yard. I wonder how hard they are to raise?

The only problem with catching and selling is you have to keep it alive during the auction and have to ship him alive and keep him alive till he gets there. Wish it would be easy as alot of us are making including me.
