      The 6month olds

      These 10 are from my spawn earlier this year, biggest one is about 4-5inches.

      In my opinion, 6th seems to be the best quality one, also, 7th one is the biggest at close to 5inches at 6months old.

      No. 6 intregues me because of the metalic sheen and white belly not shure if you mentioned earlier who were the parents were or was this a flock spawn.

      Bred a platinum ogon (female) with a tancho sanke (is now a shrio bekko - male) and a male sanke (either sanke or showa, but recently im leaning towards sanke)

      My friend you have hit a homerun with the bases loaded, Kin Ki Bekko if it stays that clean you have a very unique koi the white belly told me something but it wasn't until you posted the description of the parents. In my opinion you have been blessed with a very special koi, take care of all but that one takes the cake.

      Would #6 be considered Yamato Nishiki koi?

      And with white on the sides above the lateral line rules out Kin Ki Bekko. It would have to be solid yellow. It actually is closer to a Yamato Nishiki as it has all three colors. Unfortunately, the metallic creates more yellow than orange/red. That could change on the future as many yellow koi turn more orange as they mature. Keep Ki Utsuri in mind!lol
