| Having talked to "newbies", it's hard to explain koi. With so much information now it makes it hard for some of us who help mentor these hobbyist who need some guidance with "Koi overload"...hahahaha...I like listening to these hobbyist who like to be in the same league as some of the top hobbyist, but cant tell you things about they're koi and can only tell you he/she's koi are expensive...To be honest I have run into alot of hobbyist like that, cocky because they paid 5 figures for they're fish then wondering why their fish losing at a show wasnt based on cost of it rather than quality.
But to get back on the subject, tosai selection is a good topic but I think understanding quality at different stages would be good for any hobbyist regardless newbie or not...
