This 7" Kin Shusui Butterfly Koi is a striking metallic Doitsu variety featuring a rich orange (hi) base combined with a bold row of dark dorsal scales and elegant long flowing fins. The metallic sheen gives the body a luminous, reflective quality, enhancing both color intensity and overall presence in the water.
The defining feature is the clean, organized line of dark scales running along the dorsal ridge, creating a strong visual contrast against the bright metallic body. The butterfly (longfin) trait adds graceful movement, with extended fins that flow effortlessly as the koi swims.
The head displays a solid, vibrant orange tone, while the body transitions into a balanced combination of color and structure. At 7 inches, this koi is well-positioned for continued development, with the potential for deeper coloration and further refinement of the dorsal scaling.
Kin Shusui Butterfly koi are especially popular for their combination of metallic brilliance, unique Doitsu scaling, and elegant longfin movement—making them a standout addition to any pond.
