Koi Variety -- 10

GIN MATSUBA

This category includes all Koi with shiny body but devoid of any markings. Hikari-muji are divided into "Yamabuki Ogon (with pure yellow, metallic sheen on the entire body)," "Platinum Ogon (with shining platinum color)," "Orange Ogon (with orange sheen)," "Kin Matsuba (literally 'golden pine needles,' for individual, glittering scales appearing like raised markings)", and "Gin Matsuba (literally 'silvery pine needles,' for glittering scales on the platinum ground which look like raised markings)," etc. As they don't have any markings, the condition of luster and body conformation become the essential points for appreciation of Hikari-muji group. Excellent luster is the one which covers the whole body evenly. Generally, Koi of Hikari-muji group readily get used to humans. With hearty appetite, they tend to grow over-sized bellies. However, good shape body, covering from the head to breast and abdomen.

Koi Variety -- 9

CHAGOI

A common misconception concerning in finding high quality chagoi is an easy task. Contrarily to belief, like all other varieties, chagoi also have their own stringent criteria.

First it must have a perfect body confirmation along with perfect scale alignment and defining fukurin. Scales must also have good articulation, color uniformity without any blemishes.

In addition, chagoi also must have the potential to attain jumbo size, that is over 30 inches while meeting all the above criteria isn't that easily found.

Finally, due to its simplicity in its pattern, chagoi must make up in size to convey an imposing regal impression.

Koi Variety -- 8

BENIGOI

Benigoi or Higoi are Koi that are solid red. When buying a Benigoi, look for solid Hi. Check the fish over for any old scars or bad scales, for these will take away from the look of the Koi.

Koi Variety -- 7

BEKKO

There are three types of Bekko; the Aka (red) Bekko, the Shiro (white) Bekko, and the Ki (yellow) Bekko.

The Bekko has a simple stepping stone pattern of sumi (black) running down it's back set against a red, white or yellow background.

Koi Variety -- 6

ASAGI

Asagi are fairly classical from a genealogical point of view, and constitute a very tasteful variety. They usually have blue on the entire back and Hi on the belly, pectoral fins and gill covers.

The scales on the back have whitish base and thus collectively give an appearance of meshes of a net.

The important viewing points are conspicuously vivid appearance of the meshes and light blue, spotless head region. However, as they age, black spots often appear in the head region and Hi on the belly tend to climb up reaching as far as the back.

Koi Variety -- 5

AKA MATSUBA

Aka Matsuba are a red Koi with a black net pattern. When buying a Aka Matsuba, make sure that the net pattern is equal all over the Koi.

Watch out for any discolored scales or old scars. The Hi should be very deep too.

Koi Variety -- 4

KUJAKU

The Kujaku is a metallic or Ogon koi with the reticulated net-like pattern of the Asagi on its back. This is overlaid with either a gold, yellow, orange or red Kohaku-type pattern creating a striking effect.

Koi Variety -- 3 of 14

SHOWA

Short for Showa Sanshoku or Showa Sanke, a black Koi with red and white patches named for its development in the Showa era.

Whereas Kohaku and Taisho Sanshoku have red and/ or black markings on the white ground, Showa Sanshoku have red markings on white patterns formed on the black background. We have discerned such different arrangement by observing the processes of fry development.

Kohaku and Taisho Sanshoku are almost completely white when freshly hatched. Young fry of Showa varieties (including Showa Sanshoku, Shiro Utsuri and Hi Utsuri, etc.), on the other hand, are almost completely black when just emerged from eggs.

As days go by, white patterns become visible against the black background, and red markings will soon appear on the white patterns. We should, therefore, say that Showa Sanshoku have black texture.

www.koistop.com: Koi Variety -- 2 of 14: Hi/beni (red) and sumi (black) on a white background. Distinguishing a
sanke from a showa can be confusing but with a little help you can spot it
with ease. Just remember snake will not have sumi markings on the head and
below the lateral line. Maruten Sanke has a red crown or spot on the head.
It will also have normal red and black markings on the body. Tancho Sanke -
In addition to black markings, it has a red marking or a crown on the head
and no where else. Nidan Sanke is a two step koi fish. Aka Sanke - Almost
the entire body is red with normal sumi markings Menkaburi Sanke - Similar
to a maruten sanke except it has a mask instead of a crown on the head. Subo
Sumi Sanke - It is very difficult to get a sanke of this kind. Sumi is
displayed on the white background only never on the beni. Kuchibeni Sanke -
This is a regular patterned sanke with red/beni on the lip. Lipstick koi
fish to be exact.
www.koistop.com: Koi Variety -- Page 1 of 14: Kohaku is a white koi with red (hi) or beni markings. This is the most
common variety and most major koi show winners are picked from this group.
The hi should be deep red with well defined edges (kiwa) where it meets the
white which should be pure and bright. Tancho Kohaku is a white koi with a
red spot on its head. Make a note tancho marking is not limited to just
kohaku. You can find it on sanke, showa and many other koi varieties too.
Inazuma Kohaku (lightning strike) has a continuous red marking from the head
to the tail, but with many variations. Nidan Kohaku is koi fish that has two
red (hi/beni) markings.
Koi Varieties - KOI Stop: Koi have many different colors. Some of the major colors are white,
black, red, yellow, blue, and cream. As Nishikigoi were developed in Japan,
the language of Nishikigoi is Japanese. Japanese is used not only to name
the varieties, but also for many of the terms used to describe their colors
and traits. While possible variations are limitless, breeders have
identified and named a number of specific categories. The most popular
category is Gosanke. The Gosanke category is made up of the Kohaku, Taisho
Sanshoku, and Showa Sanshoku varieties. The Japanese breeders have many
generations of knowledge and experience when it comes to breeding and
raising Nishikigoi.
Koi Books & Videos - KOI Stop: We have a good cross-section of books for you enjoyment and reading that
will help you enjoy the hobby more. No matter what you are looking for, or
enjoy reading, we have a diverse selection of books that every Koi
enthusiast must have.
