      Useful Site for Koi Varieties! ??

      I'm a big noob when it comes to koi varieties, and i try to learn from reading this forum, but i got so mixed up with all the names, until i found this site, it has 65 varieties.

      http://www.utahponds.com/koi%20page.htm

      Im not sure if this has already been posted here, but its simple to read, there is a drawing of the Koi variety with a number below it, on the left side of the page there's a list of numbers with the name of that Koi variety.

      If the varieties on this site aren't accurate, could someone please tell me so i'm not learning the wrong stuff!

      Cheers

      If I had to choose between these two sites, I would select the koi village one. The other doesn't provide enough "info" to go along with the "drawings". Also, you don't know when the picture should be referring to a metallic fish or not. Not a good place to "learn" anything IMHO.

      I like this one from the same koi village. Don't forget to click on the names for proper pronunciation.
