If that top picture in Gazza's post about his grown on fish shows a shiro, then is my old fella here a shiro?

Clever, these old Sussex koi!!
That was the original pic of him before koijon and me rescued him...he was in a tiny tank, on his own, in a dark garage. Now...he's in with the boys, first up for the grub and growing rapidly.

Rich,
The heads of some fish will seem yellowish it normally where the skin is near the bone of the fish
