This 8.5" Matsuba Butterfly Koi features a deep, dramatic blend of dark black tones layered with metallic gold highlights, creating a bold and eye-catching presence in the pond.
Matsuba koi are known for their distinctive pinecone-style reticulation, and this fish displays a unique, darker variation of that effect, giving it added depth and contrast. The interplay between the shadowed base and reflective gold creates a dynamic look that shifts beautifully in natural light.
The butterfly (longfin) trait enhances the overall presentation, with flowing fins that add movement and elegance as the koi glides through the water.
This koi stands out for its high-contrast coloration and strong visual impact, making it an excellent choice for hobbyists looking to add a more dramatic, metallic fish to their collection.
At 8.5 inches, it offers a great balance of size, presence, and continued development potential.
Kloubec Koi Farm is a family-owned American koi breeder established in 1981. Located on 80 acres with 60 outdoor ponds and a 300,000-gallon indoor facility, we raise our koi on-site and do not import fish for resale. Every koi completes a comprehensive health and quarantine protocol before being offered for sale, and we have never experienced a case of Koi Herpes Virus (KHV).
