To count vast numbers of fry on fish farms we weigh a certain amount, count them, work out how many fish you want to move, then weigh the amount of fish you need to move, its not exact but it ain't far off, hope this helps. For example if you weighed out a 1lb of fish, and say there was 100 fish for ease of use. So you need to move 2500 fish that would be 25lb to move. I know your fish are smaller just scale it down
Hi Mark, love the channel, expat watching from Cape Town, Mark maybe you can answer a broader question on Koi culls in Japan? What do they do with their massive numbers that they cull.
absolute rejects, i.e. deformities, ones of no discernible quality or variety, are discarded. Others go to a friend. Longer term the better will be offered for sale, but have to get there first.
No wonder you have to wear glasses it’s bad enough picking a larger koi you have a skill and enthusiasm I can only strive to emulate 🙏
Wow so many fry really impressed you must have alot of patience ,to me they all look beautiful little kio, happy sorting for tomorrow
A lot of my slowest growers turned out the most beautiful ones.
I'm in awe, fantastic mark 👏
Koi look so good
Where are you at?
UK
I only wish i could be doing what you are doing, it seem like tremendous fun especially when you have results like you have at present. Fantastic.
Looking good mark
Anyone else seriously can't wait for an update any longer? xD
I’m actually starting to get a bit worried about him, I hope he’s ok....

It was just announced by Jeremy Gay that Mark had passed away.

Hi Mark, set up looks fantastic, could I please ask where you get the white breeding nets from please or do you have any ideas on how to make them ?
The outdoor ones from Norfine Nets
Hey Mark buddy are you OK I haven't seen you posting how the goshiki fry coming along
Hi Mark,
I had a look at the norfine nets. Do you know if you use the 0.5mm mesh net or the 1.5mm.
Thanks in advance
Ali
so many fry to deal with

Whens next vid mate love watching them
Mark why did you stop updating! Binge watched all episodes up to kujaku Goshki fry then nothing! Any updates?
What type of netting did you use to host the fry there Mark?

How are the fry coming along Mark ?
Nice to see the fry coming along nicely. Will you be selling them on ? I’d be interested if you are
May i know what will you feed them when they are 10 days old or more?
Mark what happens to the ones that don’t make your selection??
I was thinking exactly the same Mick .Mark I would be happy to take on some of your rejects to grow on.

Glad your surplus good fry find a home. Why don’t you sell them in say 1000 batches. There must be loads of viewers who would be keen to grow them on?
If/when I do then UA-cam viewers will be first to know.
Rest In Peace . Mark
