Once again, which one and why?

1 and 2 both have good body shape though no1 slightly better towards the tail tube. Knowing my luck it would turn into a shiro sanke anyway lol.

mmmmmm,

not an easy one for me , as , only one of the fish is my flavour , so putting aside my taste , i'd go for 1 & 2 , head shape is more elongated , and dorsal is set futher back on both , also no 3's dorsal looks like it ends very close to the tail , though this could be picture angle ???

no3 seems a touch wide at the shoulders , along with the dorsal fin issue , it could end up like a frying pan , though gut feeling says the frying pan statement , could be a bit overzealous , so a chubby fish saving grace for me on this fish is the pattern , 25-30% sumi , is just my flavour shiro or showa , so in no way a dud , and if i was buying one , it would be no3 !

the rest of their development would be down to bloodline and the genetics and external pond and rearing issues

For me one of them is very interesting as its body is very different to the others and that is No1. Body length is very long. I just wished I'd taken side views before I threw in the grow out pond.
There are 20 in there and a couple are very big now, trouble is I don't know which ones they are, all you ever see is the head and then they are gone. Nice thick soupy rich water and to see if Ben's reading this; soft as well!
