We have learned to appriciate the simplicity of Kohaku, the boldness of showa, and the beauty of sanke. In the process we also felt that shiro's also deserved to be placed in the same catagory as the gosanke. So we have kept only those 4 varities in our main pond. To be able to study and learn from them. We have enjoyed this journey so far, but know that we will never stop learning about these beautiful fish we call Nishikigoi.
What that pond is missing is a 40" Magoi.... Great collection Nancy!!!
