my new acquisitions

to day i just have couple fish from Mr Ray friend, Mr Yoshi a non English speaking high way cool blood ...fish saler at San Antonio. all shiro are small 4" $20 each, a serious contender of Mr Oliver North. All kokahu and Sanke and Showa are 8" $100 each. All kohaku are Sakuma, better than Mariyama (?) that i have last year. They may make Mary think twice when she want to repost her lisptick thing. Can you believe all 10 tank have only one Showa worth a look, and i am among the first to come. I think this year i make a better acquisition, thanks to all your teaching and ... complaining. without you all there is no way that i can make this selection. Thanks again

I went to the sale today as well and saw your showa selection. I really liked it in person. I thought they had a great selection of Kohaku and Sanke...and the Goshiki were very nice as well. I picked up an 8" sanke and an 8" showa as well. (I like your showa selection better than the one I made, but it will be interesting to watch the development.)

Everyone is thinking it , So I'll say it : We needed better photo's !

Personally , i'd like to see the Kohaku (Bottom Left) & the Showa ? They both caught my eye !

you came to the show before me or after me? if after then you bought the ginrin showa? there is only 2 left there. this year is better than last year. those goshiki are great but i do not like the speckled black of goshiki. can you post your showa? make sure that i will not cry?
