Thanks for the effort to post. I always love to see the pictures. These koi are really beautiful and i could understand your excitement to think 20 of them are growing and getting even better as i type.......I also appreciate the honesty that stuff happens to everyone, experienced keepers and dealers. I hope on some future trips to japan you'll be able to have that med on hand just in case. really helps to have personal relationships with the folks that can help when you need it!
