      Here's another I had the pleasure of seeing today. He's about 10 inches and I got him last summer.

      Your koi started out too dark, so stray sumi should be no surprise. I would blame genetics, rather than the water. I'm sure it is still a lovely pond fish.

      My shusui is happy and still alive, It is not developing anymore shimi. I still want to show my fish and the sacramento koi show on september 30 (My B-day) and october 1! I appreciate it enough, and I will make my own trophy if I have too.

      Mutts or not, they are just beautiful. I love that type of fish. Some of the blues are just lovely. Thanks for the pics. More would always be welcome too. Jeannie

      Here's my only one. She's about 18 inces now and is probably close to 2 years old. I don't know if she is any good or not, but I like her. I like the pattern. She has a nice sky blue color that you can't really see (water is a bit yellow at the moment and she's about 3 ft down). The scales seem pretty even to me, but I don't quite understand how that's judged. I got her a little over a year ago as a fingerling, the vendor said she was from Ogata.




      I posted them to another thread, but I think that one is dead.
