Showa - SK-123

The broad shape of head, transition from head to body is absolutely perfect. The strong structure of the Koi enables it to carry its weight into the tail tube with good thickness and length. The Beni colour and thickness is pleasing throughout, with good proportions in each third, rounded off with a nice tail stop. The Sumi throughout the fish shows it is starting to develop and it won't be long before the Koi has transformed. Great shiroji which is typically hard to come by in Jumbo Tosai of this age due to heavy feeding and high temperatures. The icing on the cake is the perfect Motoguro.

From Dainichi's famous MonaLisa bloodline. This is one for the future!
