Higuchi

Hi,
My first post. I have a Sanki from Higuchi. I bought her nearly 2 years ago @ 8". She was one of the first fish to go into my pond and is now around 21-22" and is 4 this year I think. She had quite orangey hi when I first got her. Her sumi was and still is very black and glossy. It was also in large blocks, I first thought she was a showa. The sumi faded and has returned more broken up, which I think is more attractive. She probably has the best white skin out of my collection. I will try and post a pic. Sorry about quality of pic and black bowl. The areas of sumi on her shoulder and mid dorsal were virtualy 2 solid blocks as I mentioned earlier. The change is remarkable.
