Hiya Mark.

As I understand it, Shiros can be a bit unpredictable. But from my untrained eye, it looks promising. For that money, I think you'll do well.

Cheers...Freddy.

A pity it wasn't earlier, I put down a deposit on a Shiro last week, and just picked it up, otherwise I might well have been interested. Ah well

Cheers...Freddy.

what really did it for me with this fish was the white skin it has and also the front fins with the black in them and they are nice big fins.
