Koi Types

Goshiki

A Goshiki looks like a mix between an Asagi and a Kohaku.  It has the Asagi net pattern and the
Kohaku Hi (red) pattern.  The Hi shouldn't have any of the net pattern on it.  Look for a
nice Kohaku pattern and an overall even shading over the rest of the scales.

Goshiki Koi

Goshiki

The word, Goshiki, means "five colored".  The original Goshikis
were probably bred from a combination of an Asagi and a
Sanke.  Goshikis have the opposite coloration the Goromos.  Goromos have a shaded
red and a white body, while Goshikis have a shaded body and a solid red pattern.
