Hahaha! Of course, I should have realized that as I don't think the mother is that old?!
But thanks for taking my post in the spirit it was intended. There is no perfect koi. But there is something in every koi that can be admired.

Still, I'd keep an eye on that retreating kiwa. It seemed like a 'normal' decline for a 14year old koi- but not a 4 year old koi of this quality and lineage. Maybe too fast a growth rate? too much sun? Or being kept indoors? Or just the nature of that pattern as it ages? It will be interesting to see this fish in a year or two.
