A nice warm summer outside, something got at it's tail fin, the top two rays are missing??? Win some you lose some but it did grow very well. That sumi came up too...
Oct '07 12 inches

...nice koi to watch develop, change,... what could be next - anything?

Hoping to learn more about this variety, anyone else have beni kumonryu to share? Thoughts? Comments? This one may be my first but won't be my last so...

Kind Regards,
Terri
