I certainly hope you are right. I too trust the open honest breeder who has a problem and does the right thing. Not sure everybody will feel the same way though. they may say they do, but then buy from somebody else. hopefully his intergrity will pay off and he can be a shining example for other breeders to follow. But if his business suffers then it will be a reason for others to stay quiet. The good news for us is, odds are, the first couple of seasons his koi will be less expensive as he trys to regain his market share. I suggest next time we are shopping for a koi and come across a momo we like and can afford, we support his integrity with our wallets and buy his fish. Show the world we admire his actions and trust his koi.
