      It looks like a Beni Kikokuryu
      people like to vehemently defend their purchases and find it incredulous that anything could be better

      So this was a trick question??

      When I look at this page I can see that basically a "yamato nishiki" is a catch all phrase for a pond grade pet fish:

      Well, that page is full of pond grade metallic sanke
      It really does look like a heavily patterned beni kiko to me.
