My mum has had 80% of them since they were little tiny babies.
Here is some of the main ones
Ghosty-ghost carp-had since he was a baby
Rosy-she is a wild carp and was given to us by a friend. she weighs around 20 pounds. She has something on her eye
Theres a nice orage colour one which is also around 15 pounds in weight.
but has been there for quite some time.
Loads of koi with some really nice markings.

here some pics.

This one is ghosty our ghost carp.


The next one is one of our koi just to give you an idea.



This last one is of rosie the wild carp.

For these fish we was quoted around 1500 to 2000. The pond they are in atm is about 5000 to 6000 gallons. It was custom built for us quite a few years ago.

It wasn't an offer we had a friend who also keeps koi round and he said they were worth about that.

my honest opininon, and this is not being nasty, but i doubt you will get anywhere near that for them

to buy a koi that size from a garden centre is costly yes, but most serious koi keepers won't take stock from garden ponds and add it to their own stocks.. there is just too much risk of transfering something you don't have.. i keep koi and i won't even buy new fish from koi shops anymore.. i will not risk the ones i have..

to be worth good money, the koi need to be good examples of their "morph" and none of the ones in the pics i can see are high quality in that way. thats not to say they are not nice fish, but they are a long way from show standard.. mine are also a long way off show standard by the way, so i'm not being a koi snob, just thats the way it goes really..

to get 1500+ for them, you would need someone who is spending quite a bit on koi, and tbh,, most people with 1500 to spend on koi, tend to have looked into it a lot, and have specific things they are after..

i do wish you all the best in selling them, and hope i am wrong, but i would be suprised to hear you got 150 for them, let alone 1500..
