| Stem saam. Baie mooi. Binnekort sal ek ook die gedeelte van die forum ondersteun aangesien ek Koi by Paul en Jaco gaan koop. Meeste van my plasings op forum tot dusver behoort eintlik onder 'Jokes - Koi related" maar ek glo dat ek meer begin leer en nie meer vir 'n lelike vis sal se ' genade-kyk daai mooi vis met rooi kol op kop nie' Dalk is SA se mooiste vis eersdaags nie meer in die Kaap of Noord Vrystaat nie, maar meer sentraal |

| Dankie manne, om eerlik tewees ek het hierdie shiro gekoop en nie veel verwag van hom af nie. Net R 300 betaal vir hom. Hy het oorspronklik 'n heeltemalle swart kop gehad maar in Augustus het hy begin verander tot wat jy nou sien. |

| Hi SAS 85% of my koi come from Cape Koi Aquarium, 10% of the other 15% comes from Orient Koi while the rest comes from Robert Wagner (Koi Network) and Platinum Koi. I prefer Cape Koi Aquarium because they give good after sales support. I paid R 300 for that one but with the YEN exchange rate prices have gone mad. Wayne |

| Sorry i need to make a slight adjustment to the statement above. The shiro is from the omosako bloodline bred by masaki. I found a picture of what it looked like in August 2008. Now compare it to Marhc 2009, what a change!  |
