Blue Orfe

The ide (Leuciscus idus) or orfe, is a freshwater fish of the family Cyprinidae found in larger rivers, ponds, and lakes across Northern Europe and Asia. It has been introduced outside its native range in Europe, North America, and New Zealand. It is a popular ornamental outdoor pond fish.

The Orfe is native to Europe and western Asia from the rivers draining into the North Sea east through southern Scandinavia and eastern Europe to the Caspian Sea drainage and the River Lena. As a popular ornamental fish, it was introduced to Great Britain in 1874 and is now widespread in England and Wales, but only has a localised distribution in Scotland. The ide was introduced into France and from there and Germany was introduced as an ornamental fish into the Netherlands.

Golden orfe are golden or orange in colour with some black spots on its neck, near the head. The less common blue variety is known as the blue orfe. Orfe require better oxygenated water than koi or goldfish, but can be kept in association with these species. Orfe were very popular as an ornamental pond fish until koi became readily available in the 1960s. This listing is for the Blue Orfe only - with silver/blue colouration. Photo is for illustrative purposes.

Do Orfe eat pond snails?
The typical prey of the Orfe is larval and adult insects, snails, and other invertebrates for smaller fish. However, they tend to eat what will fit in their mouth, so larger pond snails such as the popular ramshorn snail, should be perfectly fine to keep with Orfe in your ponds.

Can you keep Orfe and Goldfish together?
Yes you can keep orfe together with goldfish and koi in your pond. Golden and Blue Orfe species are also compatible and can be kept together.

Euphy works good as new!
Style: 19 Pack
As soon as I opened the package everything looked the same- pre-filters, filters, main brush, and side brushes. I changed the big brush first;the only issue was the new brush body didn't have the white arrows to help aligning but that didn't affect how the brush worked. I changed filter and pre-filter, and finally the side brushes. When I turned on my "Goophy" and tried to let her run the side brushes were a little too (Goophy's side brushes sounded a little louder). I trimmed the side brushes a little and all was well. Goophy didn't want to run herself but it didn't take long for me to figure out it wasn't the new brushes ;just the operator pushing the wrong button. My Goophy Euphy did what she was supposed to do- vacuum the carpet and tile floor. Goophy Euphy still wanted to take the long way to her charging station which was nothing new and easily corrected. Over all the new brushes and filter restored Goophy Euphy back to when we first used her!

Don't be cheap like me - buy these and save yourself the hassle!
Style: 19 Pack
I made the mistake of going with another, slightly cheaper set of replacement parts for our Eufy RoboVac 11S. I did not heed the cautionary tales which lead me having to find replacement parts for the replacement parts. This brand fits our vacuum perfectly - the corner brushes don't pop off, the filter is the right size and the roller brush gets sufficiently tangled with cat hair so clearly also a good fit. My only concern (and why I only gave four stars) is - surprise! - the corner brushes. Do they stay on? YES! In fact, they is so secure, I had difficulty swapping one out. Here's the peculiarity of the brand - the "whiskers" on the spinner fell out. I found them all over the floor, on different surface types and under various conditions; they were not getting caught on any one thing. Not all at once, but over two or three uses, one of the corner brushes had become devoid of almost two entire spokes! Ironically, the little guy can't seem to pick up his own mess but I digress. Without the whiskers to grasp, removing the part was difficult. I ended up using a small flathead screwdriver for leverage to pop it off. While the other corner brush appeared to have shed some whiskers as well, it was not in need of replacement. Despite the shedding, this will be my first go-to for replacement parts next go round.

Essential!
Style: 19 Pack
After about 2 months of daily cleanings, the side brushes were looking a little ragged on my Eufy 12. The brushes included in this kit did come out a little bent, but as shown on the product page, when I dipped them in hot water they straightened right out. Intrigued, I decided to try that with the original brushes. They cam out looking like new! The only con is that the filters don't look like a perfect fit. The foam seems very minutely smaller than the original and the pleated filter seems slightly thicker.
