The Many Styles of Koi Fish North in Los Angeles, CA

Posted by Writer - January 15, 2016 - Koi Fish

When most people think of koi fish, they picture a vibrantly orange fish that’s about a foot long, usually found swimming in packs with others like it in a pond. And while this is definitely one type of koi that you’re likely to find at A Part Of The Forest, it’s only just one of the many variations of koi fish in North Los Angeles, CA:

  • Kohaku: This is the traditional orange and white koi. The distinct pattern of Kohaku koi makes them immediately recognizable and because of the juxtaposition of orange and white, they stand out vividly in the water.
  • Sanke: This variation of koi is known for being orange, white and black. They look very similar to Kohaku koi, with the exception of black speckling that gives them an almost camouflaged look.
  • Kawarimo: These koi are generally all one color and can be orange, white or yellow, among variations of common koi colors. These koi appear very elegant in the water, as their refined coloration gives them the appearance of effortless movement.
  • Shusui: Distinctive black markings—resembling a spinal pattern—are what define Shusui koi. While they’re mostly white and orange, the black markings on the dorsal side of the fish allow them to stand out against other types of koi.
