This 10-inch Beni Kikokuryu Koi displays the striking metallic contrast that has made this modern Doitsu variety increasingly popular among koi collectors. The fish features a bright metallic platinum base accented by vibrant red (beni) markings and emerging black sumi, creating a dramatic three-color combination.
The clean Doitsu scalation allows the metallic skin to shine intensely in the water, while the reflective body highlights the evolving sumi pattern along the dorsal line. Beni Kikokuryu are known for their dynamic appearance, with sumi that can strengthen or shift as the koi matures and as seasonal water temperatures change.
The bright red head pattern adds strong visual balance while the metallic platinum body gives this koi exceptional visibility in the pond. The combination of metallic luster, developing sumi, and vivid beni creates a koi that draws attention from every viewing angle.
At 10 inches, #J31019 (P5) has a streamlined body and strong metallic sheen, making it an eye-catching addition that will continue to develop character as it grows.
