Green Sumi

Maurice: That's neat. Gives an idea of what the old guy might have meant. It is a bit like the green on a variety of tiger barb sold for aquaria in U.S. under a lot of different names, except not as strong and not irridescent. I can imagine that it might make for an interesting koi if deeper in tone against shiro.



Dick: I don't believe Hasegawa has introduced the newer magoi blood kohaku to his line, but I expect Ogata would have. No personal knowledge on either front. Do you get many offspring that show odd colors, or just the white & orangey colors like you descibe?
