Before & After

Here are some Before & After shots of some of the koi I picked up last October in Japan.

Remember the Yamabuki from last year..... I say its looking like a female... Apparently the Iowa Sun makes more than corn yellow

Ok, this one is for Dick B. I had bought an Asagi in Japan, but because of the earthquake, it didnt make it. Ok, so this one is all I got, feel free to laugh. This is a little Asagi that showed up from my domestic parings.

tHE WHITE ON IT IS VERY NICE, AND THE RED IS ACTUALLY LESS THAN THE PHOTO BEFORE. CAN'T WAIT FOR YOU TO TRY AND GET ANOTHER ONE....you might have some good water there for them. the yamabuki sure filled in nice body wise.

Oh, I'm feeling the pain of the Hi appearing on that Shiro! ... It's always something!
