Me and my brother have set up a new company
www.thekoiplace.com

Not put all our products on yet and we haven't been to Japan to buy our Koi yet but wot do you think so far. All products are available so if it's not on there then ask and i'll get you a price.

We are still building our customer pond but should be completed before the end of the year and go to Japan in Jan/feb so the quality koi will be available march/april time.

We also do Property and garden - www.property-garden.com

With the weather that we're having at the moment, i'm going to need an Ark to keep all of my carp in. I've got a load though, so they'll have to go on several levels.

It'll be a multi-storey carp-ark

You're lucky you posted that sort of joke in GC, and in Off Day you'd of been ripped to pieces and fed to the sharks.

My mate set up a company dealing specifically in Koi, buying, selling and breeding. He had all the tanks etc. bought his koi from Japan and everything.

Wasnt enough business to keep it going over a long period so he chucked it in and sold up.

If your mates dont like the amount of Koi business in the UK then....


Agreed though, if you're just dealing specifically with selling/buying/breeding any type of fish then you wont make that much money. If you are also selling equipment, building ponds, etc. then is money to be made if you are good at what you do.

I'd get someone to build a site for you though tbh so it looks a lot more professional.
