| Oh, you guys wouldn’t believe how bad I messed up. I kept looking for fish where the black slowly receded to reveal shiro and beni below. You say that all these showa are from black fry. At what point does the black fry turn into a predominantly white fish with sumi under the skin (#32 on page 4) and starts building black all over again? Is it like goldfish demelanization?
Even though I missed the big picture, the detail and photos have been really excellent. Thank you.
KFG, it’s not on my cheat-sheet of koi terms, but I think hi plate is a large patch of solid red.
