Some of those two-year-old sanke look like kohaku with shimmies. What's with that?

Always looks different in person.. Last spring I looked at the pics online. When I got to the greenhouse it was a different ball game. The koi I thought looked bad were actually some of the better ones.

Chaching$$$$$$$$$$$$


The prices are good for the quality you are getting.. Its a dealer auction only so I will leave it at that. Many dealers buy for private hobbyists. Like I said, I am gonna miss this one and am actually sad about it. Mr. Maeda certainly puts on a class auction...

About the only thing I won't miss is that 100% umidity in the greenhouse..

Simon, Mike, Brian and other please take pics..

Looking good. Wish I was going. But Ironically the fish I won last auction is coming home today as well!!


P.S. pick your favorite... Kohak, Sanke, Showa

Keokoi,

How do I buy one of these Momotaro Kohakus? I certainly like to get one.

Thanks for your help.

Who would guess
I'm surprised that so many experienced koi observers differ on their choices. I'm also surprised that I agree with someone. i usually choose koi based on their pattern--one that has a picture of Elvis usually gets my attention. However, today:

Showa #2, 34

Sanke #2

Kohaku #23 looks like the "Mask". I'd like to see this Kohaku at 30'' plus.
