Developing Sumi and Hi Pattern

At 16cm, this Doitsu Showa is still at an exciting stage of development. As it matures, the sumi can continue to strengthen and become more defined, while the hi pattern develops and refines.

The continued interaction between the black, red, and white coloration can create a more dramatic and balanced three-color design as the koi grows. This potential for pattern refinement adds to the enjoyment of watching a young Japanese koi develop over time.
