1. The caudal fin forms a triangle of 70 degrees to the body and has a length equal to 8/10 of the body length. The edges are straight and the corners can be slightly rounded off.
2. The dorsal fin rises steeply, is broad and reaches bluntly to the end of the first third of the caudal fin.
Body – evaluation of the length
| 26mm |
8 points |
| 24mm |
6 points |
| 22mm |
3 points |
| 20mm |
1 point |

0 points and disqualification. |
| larger than 26mm |
deduct up to 3 points |
Examples of point deductions with the body form:
| Shapeless/dumpy |
deduct up to 5 points |
| Caudal peduncle to broad |
deduct up to 2 points |
| Body too flat (if it looks emancipated) |
deduct up to 4 points |
| Round back |
deduct up to 2 points |
| Strong bend |
deduct up to 5 points |
Abnormalities like humpback, hollow back, curvature of the vertebral column etc. lead to disqualification of the set.
The total number of points deducted must not exceed 8.
