Yeah!

In Japan top level Koi are way more than $25,000.

I am pretty sure thid guy is worth $2,800.00! Just sold recently.

I heard people said that guys can catch red carp in North America, but definitely not this one!!!!

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?

It's not really hard to raise koi. dig a small pond in your backyard

, I prefer swimming pool

. Clear cold high oxygen water. that's it. Plant some lily pad

I used to raise them. They are beautiful and samrt enough to follow you when you walk around. But Canada is too cold...

flachristopherkeene9 · 09-22-05, 09:45 PM

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.

You meant a wild one like this:

Man! I believe you can sell it more than 10,000USD. BTW, this one is $950 right now, it was $550 yesterday.
