That is not fungus lah! Its the slime from the body when I catch him from the tank to the "photo studio". This fella very active. Never stop swimming. Always disturbing the "girls" in the tank. _________________ http://epowersystem.com |

It has a much better prominent headgrowth, finage wise lose out as not very proportion. proabably that is the reason you bought it as seed fish? _________________ LauLanChu

This is a real tategoi. Good catch.
But i'm a bit concern on the dorsal fin.
note: In the koi world, Tategoi is a term used to describe koi that are still at some stage of their development and are not yet "finished". _________________

Nice head grown, reminds me of my award winning Black Oranda due to head shape.

In the chinese appreciation, oranda with headgrowth that resemble a fierce looking lion is high regarded. This is one of the 'forgotton' appreciation. _________________
