I like the body on #1 better. #2 has a more interesting pattern, but the beni looks weak in a couple of places. I would pass on both though, unless they are really cheap, in which case I'd pick #1.
Showa:
#1 has a pointy nose. #2 has a nice body, but is way too dark for my taste. At such a young age and to be so dark, it may be male and it also may be REALLY dark as a mature fish. #3 has the best body of the group. It's got a little too much pattern, but still a pretty fish. #4 has the best pattern at this age. |
