Another Shusui

Here's our baby in Idaho - we pulled her with some others just to check and am happy to report everyone's healthy. Kerina is coming along nicely - about 20 inches but too lively to get an accurate measurement this time. She came from Quality Koi in NJ last year. Obviously our pond is indoors and heated.

thanks Gene for posting her! That's a pretty fish! She's definetely a hi shusui

and i like the red in the tail and pecs and around the nose as it gives her some personality. The zipper look very good! You Idaho guys have all the luck. My Asagi I bought at the same auction is still in New Jersey waiting for two months

more to come home. He's about 22 inches....

Dick, she is quite a girl and I feel fortunate to own her. I brought her home when I had some others that I had bought on Matt's auction and wanted to ship, seem like it was a good time to get her home so "I" could enjoy watching her develop.

Thanks Dinh
She has very symmetric hi, nose, head, sides, pecs, and I will try to get better pics the next time I have her up so you can see. Condsidering the ripples in the pan you made a good observation.
