This 10" Doitsu Sanke Butterfly Koi combines elegant longfin movement with a bold, high-contrast three-color pattern. The body features a rich red (hi) base layered over white (shiroji), accented by distinct black (sumi) markings that add depth and visual balance.
The Doitsu (scaleless) body enhances the clarity of the pattern, giving the koi a smooth, clean appearance while allowing the colors to stand out sharply. The sumi placement is well-defined and spaced, complementing the red pattern without overpowering it.
What truly sets this koi apart is its flowing butterfly fins. The long, translucent pectoral, dorsal, and tail fins create graceful movement in the water, adding a sense of motion and elegance that standard-fin koi cannot match.
At 10 inches, this koi offers strong pond presence with both visual impact and fluid movement. An excellent choice for collectors looking to combine traditional Sanke coloration with the added drama of longfin genetics.
