    2 Shiro Utsuri?

    What do you think of these 2 Shiro Utsuri?
    The first koi is 50cm from Darren a4koi that I got 3 years ago
    The second koi was from Gatwick Gary this year 30cm long

    it could be the same fish. once the black forms on the second one it will be a stunner.

    Hi Biogeny
    Being honest I haven’t got a clue as I don’t care about the breeder of my koi
    Hi Vince
    As I live in a hard water area I fully expect the black to develop more
    With the second koi I brought at 10 cm so will expect it grow a bit more this year

    Hi,
    To be honest its always worth knowing the breeder, this gives alot away with the outcome of the koi, especially koi like Shiro's, the dealer should be able to give you this info if they are any good!

    There both looking good, the secound one has a lot more to do, and this is where its down to the breeder and your water how good the outcome of that koi will be, I've heard of koi staying like the one you have, and never developing the sumi right through, how frustrating, but if the price is right worth a gamble

    Regards
    Steve

    When I buy a koi one of the first things I look for is if they have white lips it tells you that the yellow on its face will turn white INMO the second koi will be the better koi once it get older when it gets the black through
    The only problems with Shiro Utsuri and Tancho Kohaku they stress out to quickly giving a pink skin once they have settled down they are OK
