Russ,
I see what you mean about the Sashi on post #4, and the same trait is clearly visible on the 2nd shot in post 5. As good as they look now... later looks even better with that depth.
Another thing that REALLY impresses me is the fact that these fish are freshly unpacked after a long trip across the big pond... If this is how they look in what is likely the most stressed condition they'll ever see... how will they look once fully acclimated to good water once again.
