This 7-inch Tancho Kujaku Koi is a striking combination of two beloved koi traits—the elegant Tancho head marking and the detailed metallic Matsuba scale pattern of a Kujaku.
The koi features a bright metallic white base with dark reticulated “pinecone” scaling running along the back, creating the classic Kujaku texture that adds depth and contrast in the water. At the head, a bold Tancho-style red marking provides a strong focal point, making this fish instantly recognizable and highly attractive in the pond.
The balance between the clean metallic body and the intricate scale pattern creates a visually dynamic koi that stands out both from above and as it moves through the water. The crisp white fins and clean body shape further enhance the refined appearance of this variety.
At 7 inches, this koi is still young and developing, meaning the metallic sheen and scale definition may continue to strengthen as it grows. Its unique combination of pattern traits makes it a particularly interesting fish for collectors looking for something a little different.
This Tancho Kujaku will add contrast, elegance, and visual interest to any koi pond.
Kloubec Koi Farm is a family-owned American koi breeder established in 1981. Located on 80 acres with more than 60 outdoor ponds and a 300,000-gallon indoor facility, we raise all of our koi on-site rather than importing fish for resale. Every koi goes through a thorough health and quarantine protocol before being offered for sale, and throughout more than four decades of operation we have never experienced a case of Koi Herpes Virus (KHV).
