This 9.5-inch Hi Utsuri koi delivers bold, high-contrast patterning with a strong presence in the water. Featuring a deep red (hi) base overlaid with developing black (sumi), this koi exemplifies the striking appeal of the Utsurimono class.
The sumi pattern on this fish is well-positioned and continues to develop, creating dramatic contrast against the red body. As the koi matures, the black is expected to deepen and expand, enhancing the balance and visual impact of the overall pattern.
Key features include:
- Rich red (hi) base with strong color saturation
- Developing black (sumi) pattern with good placement
- Classic Utsuri-style contrast with dynamic pattern flow
- Clean body conformation with solid structure
- Excellent growth potential with continued sumi development
At 9.5 inches, this koi is approaching a prime display size—large enough to showcase its pattern clearly while still offering future development in both size and contrast.
A great choice for hobbyists who appreciate bold, evolving patterns and strong visual contrast in their pond.

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).
