the breader is cuttlebrookkoi farm in oxfordshire... I know this as im in the area and know june (owner of sevenoaks), and plus mark from cuttlebrook told me she buys all her fish from him.. I know she has expanded some of her clay ponds, so either these fish were bought from Cuttlebrook or the pearents were from there.

and to add 1 more thing... mark from cuttlebrook has come on leaps and bounds and no longer sells this poor quality of fish. (i was there summer 2004)

drop me an email or visit www.freewebs.com/welshkoi for some tidy fish as she has sold u poor quality fish im affraid

hi all, we went to cuttlebrook last year its where we purchased our babies from, and i have to agree with welshkoi that the quality of koi you get there isnt reflected by these fish, he has some absolute stunners and many are taking prizes at the shows now as you can see on there site http://www.cuttlebrookfarm.plus.com/ . But on the other hand i believe that the beauty of a koi lies in the eye of the beholder, and these are pretty enough fish so if yoouv'e had all 3 for £50 and your happy with them i say well done, youv'e had a bargain!! ;D

Hi Paul where in ammanford is the dealer because we will be in that area in early jan and we like to have a wonder round a few fish places when we are away, we will be about 5 miles up the road where our freinds have a holiday cottage,

cheers Graham.
