      First let me give you a well deserved congratulations, leaving her for two years in the mud it showed lots of nerves on your part now that she's here it is your responsibility to show the breeder your going to take her to the next level I wish you the best with a beautiful koi, it just hit for some reason I would like to call her Melisa.

      I did visit her last October 2016. The breeder said she had potential and suggest I leave her one more year.

      Still in Hawaii, waiting for Christmas to go by so the shipment won't get lost in all those packages and winter storm.
