This is my female Shubunkin that was bought from the pet store several years ago. Colors set slowly but well defined at this stage, she is a good 9 -10 inch fish with long fins. Very few other Shubunkins i see online and in stores look as pleasing in my opinion. Very excited to have come this far in seeing her develop. Thought it was worth a quick share.

I love it!!!! Is there a name for this type of pattern? That is one of the colors I want but would love to get it in a shub instead of a koi! She looks fat and sassy too!!! Are there silver butterfly type's that aren't koi also in the world somewhere?

I was checking out black water creeks goldfish selection and found out that they produce and sell this variety and call it sake gold. Seems like they have other special colors available.

I'm jealous! That is unlike anything I have seen.

Thank you all for the kind words I had a feeling other people would enjoy this fish. Have other nice fish as well just looking to grow them out before showing them off :D

The photo bucket GIF maker is cool
