1. The caudal fin has an elongated triangle form with a body near angle of 45 degrees. The edges are straight but corners can be slightly rounded.
2. The dorsal fin is slim, rises steeply in the beginning and reaches a point up to the end of the first third of the caudal fin.
Body – judging of the length
| 26mm |
8 points. |
| 24mm |
6 points. |
| 22mm |
3 points. |
| 20mm |
1 point. |
| Less than 20mm |
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.
Caudal Fin - judging of the length
| 10/10 of the body length |
10 points |
| 8/10 of the body length |
8 points |
| 8/10 of the body length |
5 points |
| 6/10 of the body length |
2 points |
| Less than 6/10 of the body length |
no points. |
| More than 10/10 of the body length |
deduct up to 3 points |
Examples of point deductions with defects and spreading
Angle:
| 45 degrees |
no point deductions. |
| 35 degrees |
deduct 2 points. |
| 30 degrees |
deduct 4 points. |
| Fewer than 30 |
no points. |
| 50 degrees |
deduct 4 points. |
| More than 50 |
deduct 8 points. |
| Rear edge clearly concave or convex |
deduct up to 2 points. |
| Rear edge runs diagonally |
deduct up to 4 points. |
| Rear edge strong serration and/or defect |
deduct up to 5 points. |
| Upper and lower edges at unequal angles |
deduct up to 5 points. |
| Upper and lower edges concave or convex |
deduct up to 5 points |
| Upper and lower edges serration or defects |
deduct up to 2 points. |
| Corners rounded off too much |
deduct up to 2 points. |
The total amount of deducted points must not exceed 20.
Dorsal fin - evaluation of the length
| Up to the end of the first third of the caudal |
5 points. |
| Up to the caudal fin beginning |
3 points. |
| Under it, depending on length |
1 to 2 points. |
| Dorsal fin reaches beyond the first third of the caudal |
deduct up to 3 points. |
Examples of point deductions with formal defects
| Not steeply rising at beginning |
deduct up to 3 points |
| Strong serrations or defects |
deduct up to 2 points. |
| Deviation from the ideal shape |
deduct up to 7 points. |
| |
|
The sum total of the points deducted may not exceed 8.
The same marking deduction for a defect is only allowed once. |
