Sekiguchi - Tosai - Showa - KOI-7261803

This Showa from breeder Sekiguchi immediately catches the eye due to the powerful balance between deep sumi (black), warm hi (red) and bright shiroji (white). With a length of 22–25 cm and in the age category Tosai, this is a young, vital Japanese koi that exudes class in any pond.

Characteristics of this Showa

What we clearly see in the photo is a harmonious and forward-looking pattern that appeals to both novice and experienced enthusiasts.

• Pattern and balance: Strongly present sumi on the head, shoulders and tail base, including a classic menware (borderline) over the head. The hi runs irregularly but evenly along the spine in several tight blocks of colour.
• Skin and scales: Pure, even scale alignment with a healthy, subtle sheen of the shiroji, which enhances the contrast with black and red.
• Fins and appearance: Symmetrically built pectoral fins with clear sumi pigmentation (chance of beautiful motoguro), adding extra dynamism while swimming.
• Build: Already a robust, well-developed body shape for a Tosai – a nice foundation for further growth and presentation.

In the pond, this Showa will stand out due to the deep black that creates visual depth, the warm red that gives rhythm to the body, and the clean white that makes everything shine. As a young Showa, the sumi can further develop and deepen in the coming years; the menware can refine, and the edges of the hi can become tighter. Naturally, development remains dependent on water quality, nutrition, and temperature, but the foundation here is clearly strong.
