Shiro Muji is when a Koi loses it's pattern, just turns into a white worthless koi.
A Kokaku I purchased ( tategoi ! ) was being grown on for me,
the dealer contacted to tell me and gave me a FULL refund, held in credit,
which was very honest of him, and also lucky it happened BEFORE I took delivery !
As with anything in life, I strongly believe you get what you pay for,
the chances of getting a single good koi out of those is minimal,
ok if just stocking a lake, but of no interest to someone just trying to build a collection of good quality koi, with a capacity of 20 -30 adult koi !
