Thanks dick I will pass on the message to the breeder i am sure they will be happy to hear that what we are breeding out of our on backyards is not too far back from japan.
This year I am concentrating on the bakki showers and soft water and achieving growth rates never seen in Australia (in a way I have achieved it at growing past 1cm a week but there will still be scepticals saying lets see how they are a full growing season later). The sanke i posted came from sydney and had grown in a 90 tonne pond, it was far from being the largest there. Sydney has pretty low TDS tap water at around 120ppm but most ponds are around 320ppm.
here in WA many of our koi hobbyist had always thought that sydney hobbyist had better fish and now I know that is due to the softer water they have in sydney.
