question on Giant Carp

thanatong · Apr 22, 2009

I have recently purchased a Giant Siamese carp and was wondering if anyone can give me any info on how to get them big and healthy.

Lots and lots of space. Carps are better off in large ponds than in aquaria in order to grow.

dont be so sure JohnPTC will take it...the bioload they create is staggering, they dig up the bottom, uproot plants, etc etc...
