This shiro utsuri is the biggest and fastest growing out of a lot of 120 pcs I bought in July 2006.Many turned out to have red fins,red eyes, and red patches on the body and majority are male fishes. I would say approximately 90% were males and many were given away or sold at a lost. The remaining females, only a handful turn out to have better sumi quality, good white base,structure and pattern. Some of them faded beyond recognition.Most of the female shiro utsuri from the same batch, they hardly touch 55cm or most of them below 50cm, while this shiro is touching 60cm (April, 2008). I seriously think that this is a jumbo shiro utsuri. It has won Best in Size 25BU Utusurimono in 2006 when I first purchased this fish and the one sided motoguro did not deter the judges from awarding this shiro Best in Size 25BU.
This shiro has very broad shoulder and a very unique black pattern that is hardly seen on a shiro utsuri especially the black patch on the shoulder that blends/matches well with the kuchi zumi (black nose). An interesting fish to add to your collection!!!
