Pattern is what stands out. As Richard said, too much red. A couple of breaks on the right would help a lot. But, in a peculiar way, I think I'd personally like it better if the breaks into the beni did not exist. I think it would make a strong, bold impression if it was just the maruten and a solid hi plate. If it had that pattern, the beni would have to be really good to hold up at 28"+. JR has posted on the refinement of koi patterns on NI. This would definitely fall among the less refined. ....Wish I could tell beni quality and depth from a photo.
