Just bought N203 yesterday. Want to get N211 but Kevin told me 4 people was ahead of me and was sold yesterday. From what was left over at $1500, Kevin pick this koi for me. Planning to leave this koi in mud pond for at least 2 years. Hopefully, I made the right choice.

1) N213
2) N206
3) N211
4) N203
5) N202

BTW, it is your first post !!!!!!! Welcome to the KB board.

Actually Steve just to clarify.. 211 was sold on monday... I was there when you called Kevin Yesterday... The reason he laughed was becuase about 5 minutes before you called. I asked if anyone had called about my fish.. LOL

Dinh, I don't have a top 5.. all of the fish are top to me.. but.. I had some in mind..

206,211 for the $1500 showa's 206 was taken so I took my second pick..

213,207 for the $2500 showa's.

209 for the $3500 showa's I didnt have a second pick only because that is all I would have spent for 1. Plus this close to Fall Harvest in Japan I need to save money

All I can stress is that even the cheapest fish out of the group could be number #1 in a couple of years. Pick for pattern cuz the skin and conformation is equal.

Interesting thread......and some nice showa. Just had to jump in here and post a picture or two of my Ooyama showa I picked up November 2004. First four photos show the dates...last two taken in August of 2005. As you can see approximately 10 inches in last photos. Was planning of showing it at the Portland Show last July, but was sick and had to miss it. I usually don't predict what my koi will do on a given day.....but with Baby Champion at Portland under 12 inches, this one was unbeatable in my opinion..... my favorite showa.

One last close up of the head....see this link. Would not let me repost it here.
