Young Koi » Young Koi - Hi Utsuri - 8 inch

Hi Utsuri :

Hi Utsuri are best viewed as a Showa without the white. Until recent years, the hi was rarely scarlet, but out crossings with Kohaku have greatly improved upon this variety. Some breeders have also reintroduced Magoigenes into their strain of Hi Utsuri, which allows the koi to attain a greater size without any falloff in pattern or skin quality. the pectorals rarely show true motoguro: more often they are striped black and red, with a red leading edge.
