That is a super fish.... See how effortless it moves? It has a powerful peduncle and nice tail set. Is it a male or female? Any spawns yet??

That's a male, and sadly, deceased last year of a heart defect. Mr. Oishi himself gifted that fish to me. I have 5 others handpicked from Mr. Oishi that I'm grooming for a spawn this year.
