V72 26/6/10 Two New Pond Members

This was today's 5pm feed. Just 5 handfuls of FD Supplement and 1 handful of Sakai Colour. Also a chance to introduce 2 new members to my pond, a 70cm Ogata showa and a wonderful 78cm Marusei ginrin hi utsuri. Both belong to a koi buddy who has entrusted me to take care of them.

Another great video bro... I wonder the if the sumi on hi-utsuri will finished like the shiro. It will be a floor jaw dropping:-) Your kois acted that way becoz you are feeding them kaw-kaw or you have done something scary to them...hahaha...

[hooinc]

@malaysia1971 Thanks bro. They don't get scared when feeding sinking food, only for floating food, especially when I move to an area near to where they are eating and I'm just hovering over them. Must get a huge karashi as leader, I was told they're even more tame than chagois!

thats sad your only male has sinking disease, but he still is looking good.

@jakoi945 Looking good?  His sumi is already a pale comparison to what it was 2 years ago. It used to be lacquer black but now it's faded and patchy. A characteristic of this variety apparently,when they get past 5 years old. The variety is relatively much less refined/stable as compared to kohaku and sanke.
