      Two had that info (#5 the darker one and #22 the light one). I am actually shocked a little on your response based on how people have reacted to the Chagoi and Soragoi in the judging section.

      A handful at a time, up to 8 times a day. I push for 3% body weight. For this group of small koi it equates out to about .9lbs of food a day if I can make it out that often.

      As long as I am picking up better quality as I go, I am happy. Compared to the pond mutts I had when I started, I am making some forward movement.

      Unless I hit that powerball its a long path too. If I hit the powerball we will shorten it with a 20,000g pond and a trip to Japan, lol.

      I thought the asagi was the best also when I first viewed the pics. Nice koi.

      Maybe I'm starting to learn? NOT!

      I pulled a few for measure today while doing a water change. Tancho put on half an inch in the last month, an inch for the Showa. The Asagi's have been looking big so I pulled them to check their growth. Both have gone from 8 inches to just over 11 in the last month.

      Headed out and pulled a few to check them out. No major growth on the Chag, Showa, or Asagi. The Shusui I havn't pulled in about 1.5 months. Its up 3 inches since then. Was going to pull a few more, but its too hot out ther.
