This 12" Gin Rin Asagi Koi puts an especially bright twist on one of the oldest and most recognizable koi varieties.
The body carries the characteristic cool blue-gray coloration of Asagi, while pronounced Gin Rin scales create brilliant flashes of silver across the back and sides. Under the light, the reflective scales almost appear layered over the darker underlying color, producing an impressive shimmering effect.
Subtle darker scale definition remains visible beneath the Gin Rin, giving the body depth rather than appearing uniformly silver. A touch of warm red-orange near the pectoral area provides a small but attractive contrast to the cooler body coloration.
At 12 inches, this koi already has substantial presence, but it's the unusually strong reflective scaling that really makes it stand apart. For someone who loves Asagi but wants something brighter and less traditional, this is an interesting individual.
This koi was bred and raised at Kloubec Koi Farm in Amana, Iowa—we never import koi for resale.
Our family-owned American koi farm encompasses 80 acres, more than 60 outdoor ponds and a 300,000-gallon indoor facility. Every Kloubec Koi completes our comprehensive health and quarantine protocol before being offered for sale, and our farm has never had a case of KHV.
