The 4th one looks like a Doitsu Gin Matsuba Ogon - Shiny silver with doitsu scalation but Matsuba-type scales.
The one I have is like the third one

Actually I think she is classified as a Doitsu Hariwake. If you look she has yellow patches on the sides. Scaleless except along the back fin. But I also wonder if she would be called a Doitsu Kin Matsuba because the back scales are black instead of her regular body style.

See this is where I and others get confused. So many combinations to choose from. LOL

All I know is that she is one of my favorites and love how she looks. LOL

RSFish, I love Ghost, the blue butterfly! And Skeletor is beautiful, so unique, or at least to me, since I've yet to see any nicer Koi than what I just saw on this post. Thanks everyone for sharing! Aunt Ag is a doll, too!

Moved fish last weekend as the pond is still leaking. They were going to be sold any way so now they can help with the financing of the rebuild. Shame they won't get to enjoy it!
I found one small fish that got moved right back to the pond as I have never seen a koi like this. The color looks almost purple in the sunlight and the scales look like they have ridges.

Very nice herd! Blues and Yellow/Black are always some of my favorite color combos. The weekend after this one my whole herd comes out to be photographed and sorted. Can't wait!
Is the one Koi purple all over or just in patches? Sounds very interesting. Hopefully you can take a couple of photos. Goromos come in purple patches.

Well, had another 5 go out today so more $$ for the rebuild. I admit I took a few (6-8) out of the sale tanks & put them in the pond. Hopefully hubby won't notice! Moved the Savio waterfall filter to the new pond to help with the overload of fish and will move the Alpine filter also as the old pond just has plants. I am going to try to place the fish that will be sold in the old pond once it is rebuilt to keep it easier to catch them.

Either "It's amazing how fast Koi reproduce." or "Dinners ready!" Distract his mind and move on.
