      I need a ID on this koi please

      ID the fish on the right please. I could not get a current photo of this fish, but i had this one from 3 months ago. Since this photo was taken his sumi has darkened to very solid inky black and net pattern between sumi is still white center with black edging on the scales. All orangeish colors have disappeared too. He is black and white only now. His white is brilliant white that sometimes has a deep navy blue hue depending on lighting and angle, none of my other 150 fish have that hue or the black netting over white scales with black sumi. The white has no grey hues and isnt exactly metallic either. It is very odd fish. Name:  KOI white sumi and black edged net.jpg

      The blur, lighting, and angle make it a bit difficult to say, but I'd guess showa. If the orange all stays away, it could pass for a shiro utsuri, but more likely some orange will resurface here and there later.

      The picture doesn't allow for a decent ID to many variables going on the one item that appears to be viewed is the flowing fins I believe this is of the long fin varietie.

      Thank you. I had just installed a liner and fish are super skittish. I couldnt get a current photo. The orange is gone for now though. Your right it could come back in future.

      Usually when oranges/red's disappear they don't return.
