      I'm sure no expert but from my experience is once the red goes... it's gone forever. Only hope is she develops a little sumi and resembles a bekko.
      I have one that took a little longer to develop to where yours is, but the results is the same... so don't feel alone.

      I just wonder:

      how big the chance is: That a kohaku´s beni fades considerbally.

      She still has the shimmies to remind you of her best days.

      I guess she had the wrong genetic issues.

      Been there done it got the tee-shirt.

      At least you got a couple good seasons out of her. I was hopeful for this little tosai and look what happened in just 3 short months. He'll be solid white before you know it.

      My beni and sumi challenged sanke. I am keeping her because of her good skin and size potential.
