In my opinion it is preferable. What they're raising are "hothouse"
flowers. How will they develop good immune systems in such a ultra clean
environment? What happens when they have to face the real world in a pond
or tank?


I assume they don't care as they already got their money and it's easy
to just blame the customer for any problems that turn up down the line
with the fish.

Just wondering, Koi-Lo, how and where do you sell your fish?


Most of them are sold in large lots to Aquarium and Pond stores in the
spring and early summer. The rest are sold locally through word of mouth.
That applies to my Shubunkin goldfish as well. The culls go into farm ponds
for mosquito control. I give them away. It's a self supporting hobby these
days. :-)


Interesting. I wouldn't mind being able to one day at least partially
offset my aquaria expenses, but I'd imagine that's some ways down the
line...
