This year we saw 152 beautiful koi entered across all 18 classifications. Under the expert eyes of Gerard and Kazuyo McDonald, the task of judging was completed well before lunch. This year, and possibly for the first time ever (before the judges had made any announcements), we saw a unanimous decision with all competitors singling out the same koi as their personal choice for Grand Champion - a truly wonderful Kinginrin Koromo bred and raised by Graham and Lee Fameli. The judges formally sealed the decision and another home grown Aussie koi was anointed GC. Well done to Graham and Lee, as well as all the other competitors and all the AKA team who worked hard on the day.
