I have a Ki Bekko that WAS beautiful when I got her. I say "was" because (file this under "new guy hard lessons learned") some time later I received a FREE package (bucket)of ***** Color Enhancer stick food with an air pump I purchased.
"Oh" I thought "this will really help to "bring out the color".
Now months later ( and upon further reading here and elsewhere) I come to find out it really pulls reds out and my bekko has orange spots.
Live and #$F^& learn... maybe a mud pond would do her good. Oh yeah I don't have easy access to a mud pond
