Asagi koi is one of the oldest varieties recognized in koi keeping. Its beauty and simplicity combined capture attention, revolving around the sophisticated roots of Japanese Asagi. These koi have a rich blue color and net-like reticulated pattern across the back, with red hi painted on their belly, fins, and cheeks. The vivid colors are somewhat subdued, providing a peaceful look that is classic in style and captures attention without overshadowing the scenic beauty of the pond.

Asagi's distinctive qualities include an even, clean scale pattern known as "netting" with smooth blue and red transitions. Younger Asagi tend to be lighter, but their beautiful markings become deeper and more vivid with age. A fact to note is that the most desirable Asagi koi display perfect netting, which has consistent spacing, tone, and contrast on its surface, a darker but smooth blue, and a bright, clear hi without overpowering the rest of the body.

We partner with Japan's elite breeders, such as Ooya, Otsuka, Maruhiro, and Marusei, to hand-pick the finest Asagi koi to add to our selection at Fitz's Fish Ponds. Every Asagi fish is selected for its scale clarity, strong color placement, and potential for impressive growth over time. Asagi adds a natural touch to Japanese ponds and collections alike. Check out the rest of our selection and enhance your pond with a piece of koi history.

What is an Asagi koi?

+

The body of the Asagi Koi features a blue-gray reticulated pattern, surrounded by red on the lower sides, belly, and fins.

What makes Asagi koi special?

+

Asagi Koi are renowned for their clean, unique patterns on scales. Their ‘cool’ blue and ‘warm’ red features blend perfectly. KOI maturation is a distinctive process in which its appearance changes gradually. In this case, the look becomes deeper and richer with time.

How big do Asagi koi typically get?

+

Compared to other KOIs, Asagi is among the bigger ones. Due to their environment, care, and nutrients, these Asagi can reach 24 to 36 inches in size.

Are Asagi koi a good choice for beginners?

+

Asagi are versatile and visually pleasing, making them ideal for both newcomers and seasoned Koi Keepers.

Do Asagi koi get along with other koi varieties?

+

Certainly, Asagi are peaceful KOIs and get along well with other KOI types, whether in community ponds or elsewhere.

How can I maintain my Asagi koi's vivid red and blue colors?

+

They can keep color from fading using highly stable water conditions combined with a proper diet that enhances color.

What does “reticulated pattern” mean in Asagi koi?

+

The characteristic feature of an Asagi is the net-like design on its back. The borders of the scales form the “reticulated net.”

Are Asagi koi considered rare?

+

Asagis are not among the rarest Koi, but premium specimens with perfect netting, deep, rich blue, and clean red are hard to find, thus creating a greater demand.

Why should I buy Asagi koi from Fitz’s Fish Ponds?
