Kanezo - Nisai - Ochiba - KOI-7261685

This Ochiba from breeder Kanezo immediately stands out due to its warm copper-red spots on a bright silver-grey base. The pattern is calm and harmonious, with three main spots beautifully centred along the back line. At a length of 40–43 cm, this Nisai belongs to the strong, young Japanese koi that are ready to further grow in body and appearance. SKU: KOI-7261685

Features of this Ochiba

What makes this Ochiba visually unique is the combination of a sleek build and a clearly defined pattern. The skin has a healthy sheen with evenly laid scales, which provides a pure, fresh look in the water. The three symmetrical back spots create a balanced flow from head to tail, while the sharply defined marking on the head — just below the eyes — gives the fish a distinctive expression.

The pectoral fins are finely shaped and partially semi-transparent, with a subtle metallic reflection that elegantly lights up when in motion. The straight, sleek dorsal line and well-placed eyes indicate good health and potential. In the pond, the contrast between the warm copper and the cool silver-grey will immediately catch the eye, especially against a dark bottom or in soft morning light.

As with many Ochiba, a gradual deepening of the shades over the seasons is possible. Expect the warm tones to become more pronounced and the pattern to gain further definition as the fish matures, while the skin quality — with proper care — continues to shine beautifully.
