Hello all hav`nt been on for a while. I took my covers off yesterday. All the Koi look great. I cant believe how much they have all grown and developed. I managed to bowl up my brace of Goromos that I managed to buy for a TENNER at the end of the day at the Essex Section Show back in the summer. They were 4 to 5 inches then and are now 8 to 9 inches.Â* I think I did well for my haggeling skills. The Sumi Goromo has got along way to go yet butÂ* You can just make out the Hi to the edge of his Sumi. His side and belly are as white as snow and the photos dont do either of them justice. Let me know what you think

Bad news on the Budo goromo it has commited suicide and jumped out my pond I found it on top of my filters. Well Gutted!!!
shame to hear that m8 . my new goshiki tried the great escape but lucky for me i found the daft thing , but she split her tail and seems to have an infection now her tail is reddin up quite alot and im sure i see a couple of raised scales at the base of her tail . i did give her a salt bath after i found her and she was fine for a few days but now this . keeping koi is definetly being to try my patients if i hadnt just finished the pond they would probarly all be on ebay

that sumi goromo is stunning can i have it ? sorry to hear about the other one , i have lost a few stunners through the years when they act like "free willy " lol.it is a shame but cant be helped unless you net the pond but it takes the point out of it all if you do.still great little fish will watch how it develops.
Thanks for your coments Brett. Over the last month this fish has come on leaps and bounds his Hi is really bleeding through on top of His Sumi. I think this will be one of my best Koi in a year or two. I will post some more pictures towards the end of the summer so you can see how He is comeing along.

I make you right about the net.
Bowled up the Sumi Goromo, at the weekend. Not the greatest pic, it is developeing into a fantastic looking Koi, with great body shape and blinding skin quality.
