first of all want to say the pond looks very nice, love the window. as for the fish its a hard one to really say what it is as you dont really see many about like that one, but if i was to have a guess i would say its a some
kind of Hi Utsuri. maybe other people have another idea. mark

It is but it can also have dorsal and lateral scalation... I've seen a few doitsu in shows and they've had this. Midorigoi being a classic example. | |
