shusui progress

i posted a pic of this shusui when i bought it back in February (rudely jumping on someone else's thread then: http://www.koi-bito.com/forum/attach...tachmentid=517)

MikeM and Dick Benbow kindly gave me some comments then, so i'd like to provide some progress.

the pic i posted previously (http://www.koi-bito.com/forum/attach...&stc=1&thumb=1) was taken in Feb when it was purchased at 25cm. this new pic was taken last weekend, now 42cm. Mike predicted then that more hi would fill in, so the hi specks wouldn't look as bad. i didn't notice until i re-read the old thread, and then decided to compare the new and old photos. it seems he's right again, i think the hi is extending towards where the specks where. i didn't know such things could happen (sorry Mike, didn't take your comment too seriously then, as i never experienced hi "coming up" before. needless to say, i'm happily surprised.).

the photo is a bit compromised cause it was taken at night and i had to use a flash. the fish is not as white as it might appear in the pic, still a slightly yellowish head. but i think it's getting cleaner.

still a male, but so far still gives me enjoyment.

please do comment, it might help me pick out a better shusui in future.
