Dainichi - Kohaku - Sansai - OPA002
Dainichi Kohaku – Sansai – 68cm – Female – Certified & Microchipped
Premium Japanese Koi for Sale – Delivered Direct to Your Door (UK Mainland)
“Stunning Dainichi Kohaku with incredible colour, pattern, and growth prospects.”
This superb Sansai (3-year-old) Dainichi Kohaku is a refined example of what makes this bloodline world famous: flawless skin quality, deep lacquer-red hi, and a perfectly balanced three-step (sandanzō) pattern. At 68cm female, this koi already displays body strength, symmetry, and development potential far beyond its age.
With a price of £995, this is an exceptional opportunity to secure a premium, hand-selected Japanese Kohaku from one of the most influential koi farms in the world.
Why This Koi Stands Out
- Thick, uniform hi with outstanding pigment density and long-term stability
- Clean, snow-white shiroji providing crisp contrast and elegance
- Strong, streamlined female body, shaped for future volume and growth
- Classic three-step (sandanzō) pattern with superb balance and visual impact
- Deep, rich beni that will mature beautifully over time
- Highly desirable simplicity and refinement in pattern placement
- Excellent future potential, both in size and overall presence
Dainichi Kohaku are internationally respected for their powerful frames, glowing skin quality, and long-term developmental strength. This koi embodies all of these traits, making it a standout choice for serious hobbyists and collectors.
A refined, eye-catching Kohaku with undeniable pedigree and long-term promise.
