When you look into a pond of Koi, you will be invariably greeted
with an array of colours: red, black, white and yellow, the list can
be endless.
The choice made will be probably dependent on the choice of the
person. What appeals to one person will not necessary appeals to
another and this is one of the factors that makes keeping Koi so
enjoyable.
Virtually, every Koi can be classified, we will attempt to help
you recognise the major varieties. Hopefully, the information given
here will help you to recognise both the positive & negative
expects of the Koi, therefore enabling you to get not just the best
value but a Koi that has real potential.
There are over 100 named varieties and the Japanese are creating
new ones all the time. But we hope that what you are about to read
will deepen your knowledge of Koi.
