The Sire is a Nemo/Galaxy HMPK with a nice bodyshape and pretty good balance. The unpaired fins have a decent shape (big D-shaped caudal, trapezoid shaped anal and the dorsal with the front rays directed forward). Points of attention the outer rays of the caudal (slightly rounded corners) and the volume of the ventrals. The Dame is Nemo/Galaxy HMPK with a very nice colorcontrast & distribution. She has a good bodyshape with a nice D-shaped caudal. The dorsal could be a bit fuller and more directed forward in the front. Furhter point of attention are the double-tipped ventrals, which ideally should have a single tip.
With this cross I hope to fix the strong bodies, the smooth topline and work towards a nemo/galaxy line with a better form & finnage. The offspring (F2) most likely will start of as dark- and lightbodied blue/red with a good chance of marbling. Hopefully some already will develop some koi patterns along the way.
