This 11" Gin Rin Sanke Butterfly koi combines three standout traits—classic Sanke coloration, reflective Gin Rin scaling, and elegant longfin movement—into one highly eye-catching fish.
The white base is accented by vibrant red (beni) and balanced black (sumi) markings, creating the traditional Sanke pattern. Overlaying this is the Gin Rin effect, where individual scales catch and reflect light, producing a noticeable sparkle as the koi moves through the water.
The butterfly (longfin) trait adds another dimension, with extended pectoral and tail fins that flow smoothly, enhancing visibility and grace. This combination makes the fish especially dynamic from multiple viewing angles.
At 11 inches, the koi has a solid body structure with good fin extension and developing pattern balance, making it a strong choice for both aesthetic appeal and continued growth.
