      @Aboutkoi  4 роки тому +3

      I'm going with you for the number 9 as favourite, it's a nice Doitsu Kohaku for sure. Also the Tancho (2) looks nice currently and surely would be selected by a breeder as well, needs some time to develop to see what it going to happen with the pattern. What do you think of number 1 and 7? For number 8 it surely looks like an unique pattern/Koi. A breeder would most likely not select it though, it only shows one red small marking in the middle of it's body. For a Sanke a breeder would consider it as not enough 'pattern' (red) visible. It would be a nice unique Koi to grow out though and see what happens. Thanks for your reply and stay safe.

    • @Aboutkoi
      @Aboutkoi  4 роки тому +1

      @Joko Kurniawan, that is quite hard to tell at this point. At least it shows some indications that more white will be visible. When a Sanke grows the fish is stretched a little bit, and some part of the pattern won't 'stretch', meaning more white area's will become visible inbetween the patterns. If you look closely you can see some white in the tail area. And also in the middle section already some white can be seen. Time will tell. A breeder would select this Koi as well.

      Number 2 and 9 are surely good choices. Number 2 seems to be a nice Doitsu Maruten Showa (round red marking on the head). Number 9 is a Doitsu Kohaku which seems to have a good body posture and a nice pattern. Number 8 I myself have my doubts, it will most likely have not enough red markings on the body. Only on the middle of the body is a red marking, the rest will be black and white. Not a preferred pick for me, but a nice experiment 👍

    Do they or you discard the doitsu with scales/? Or does the pattern override the fact that they may have scales

    • @Aboutkoi
      @Aboutkoi  3 роки тому

      Doitsu with a few scales will also stay, or even when they are almost fully scaled. If the Koi has scales, then it is just a normal 'Kohaku' instead of a 'Doitsu kohaku' or a normal 'Sanke' instead of a 'Doitsu Sanke' for example. But this breeding is purely focusing and breeding on the Doitsu variety.

      That is true. Spirulina and chlorella are mainly boosters for pigmetation/color. But it is proven actually that spirulina does have a positive effect on growth rates as well. However only really low. I have read research paper about it a few years ago. Perhaps you will be able to find it if you search for it, something like: "effect of spirulina on growth rate carp" (I don't remember the title honestly)

    where do the discarded koi go? and how many of the discarded koi are saved? what determines first and second choices ( grade A+ Grade A/B )
    ?

    • @Aboutkoi
      @Aboutkoi  3 роки тому

      That depends a lot on the breeders. Some breeders do take their Koi apart and grow them larger, to about 5-10 cm and then sell them as lower class Koi. Other breeders completely discard them - they only want high quality (think about the 'higher tier' or the more famous high class breeders)

      Hi there, some breeders do take their Koi apart that are not selected and grow them a little bit larger. These will be sold as low class koi for a lower price. Other breeders do discard them, it all depends on the breeder.

      Famale decides the body shape more, which is the most important for koi. And colour quality gene is mostly decided by male. Pattern is more likely random.

Number 8 I have my doubts, it only has one really small red step on the middle of it's back. This most probably won't be enough for this Doitsu Sanke, so in the end balance will be missing.
