I am going to add one more koi.

Hi everyone,

I am going to add one more koi and that is all. What should I get? I have 3 kohaku, 2 sanke, 1 showa, 1 shiro utsuri and 1 assagi. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

John

This is an easy one for me, Budo Goromo. Of all the coloured varieties that are in my pond, I always notice the maroon patterned koi, its startling. Yes Joe, the one I received from Kevin. Do you remember?

Kingkong-Do you have picture of the Budo Goromo?

Joe - Chagoi/Ogon. It sounds good. Which one? No more gosanke for me.

How about an Ochiba-Goshiki, this would gaurantee that you have a Koi that very few people have.

I agree with Reptar...it wouldn't throw off the color scheme and would provide something you do not have...constant variation... You'd have something different to look at all the time....you could wonder what it was going to do next.
They also help me keep up with if my water water is changing

I would add a platinum ogon. The ghost of any pond & a beautifull sight in a dark liner pond.
