This 6.5" Sanke Butterfly Koi may be young, but it already has plenty of personality. Its pattern is dominated by fiery red-orange hi, accented by contrasting white and distinct patches of deep black sumi.
The strong red coloration begins across the head and continues through much of the body, while the black markings add dramatic contrast through the center and toward the tail.
What really sets this individual apart is its Butterfly finnage. The remarkably long, pale tail extends well beyond the body, creating an elegant flowing appearance that should become even more noticeable as this koi grows.
For someone looking for a smaller Butterfly koi with big color and dramatic fins, this Sanke is an eye-catching choice.
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.
