it's official, I don't know squat about picking Shiros

looking over the picks for the first 3 rounds I am pleasantly surprised and a little worried. 2 of my top 3 picks are still available. Does this mean I don't know squat, or I'm shrewd. I'd vote for the former since I've never owned a Shiro before, but only time will tell.

Ok is there an easier way?

I keep on going back and forth between pics and what was listed as being picked through by this thread....Is there an updated list that only shows koi which are availble?

First, create two folders. Go thru this thread and put all the fish that have already been selected in one folder ( http://www.koi-bito.com/forum/genera...-schedule.html). Put the fish still avaible in another. Create a 3rd folder and put all the fish you don't like at all in that one. Then you have MUCH less to chose from.

Thanks for the replies.

I'm not worried about it going shiro muji. It's young. I have patience. I have an almost 5 year old Brady male that is just coming into his own. About 1/2 his sumi is still submerged and he was pretty yellow until about 2 months ago when his shiroji turned sparkling white. He didn't have any sumi up at 4".

Cindy, that's why I liked this fish. If the pattern stays....

Ben, 70 was my #3 pick for a long time. Last weekend, I decided to lower it in rank because I can't tell if the sumi is spotted or wrapping. It has a great body!

Nope, but you can look at JNorth's post on what has been picked already on the main thread. that's what I have been doing. Keeping up post by post is hard.

I was suprised to see that someone did not pick when it was their turn. I would have traded my 81 pick for theirs. I'm sure Luke would have traded up.
