Matt,
initially, when you look at them they look like a red and white shusui douitsu koi.
They basically look like a shusui but when you look closer the red is a kohaku red not a shusui red. The white is very white. The pattern is different than shusui, more of a scalloped pattern. At first I didn't like the idea of a compromised koi that was neither kohaku or shusui but a good one is so good as not to be denied. Sorry I don't have a pic, maybe someone will have one and can get it
posted.

I took about 600 pictures in Japan (I got to see 15 different breeders). If I would have had more memory cards (and more time), I could have easily taken several thousand photos. I definetly need to go back again.

Ya, me too. Lovely fish! It doesn't have the blue which makes shusui special, but it`s a great different look.

Has its own style and looks different from doitsu kohoku. If you can fit that in your breeding schedule Dick, I say it looks well worth the effort.

Wonder what sanke and showa X shusui would turn up.

....Out of 400,000 fry, maybe one Ai Goromo worth keeping. Just gotta find it.

Another Kosui

Here is the Kosui owned by Morris Bush.
This koi took an award at the Bothel show in 2003 (has not been shown since).
