Breeders Specializing in Kanoko Asagi Koi Fish: 

Ozumi Ikarashi

The Kanoko Asagi is a show-stopping variation of one of the oldest koi varieties. While classic Asagi are known for their rich blue backs and deep red markings, Kanoko Asagi add an eye-catching twist with red speckles that appear like polka dots across the sides. These dotted markings, known as "Kanoko," create a spotted effect that makes each fish uniquely stunning.

At Fitz’s Fish Ponds, we offer select Kanoko Asagi koi from top breeders like Ozumi Ikarashi, known for producing koi with clean, symmetrical netting across the back, vibrant yet balanced red spotting, and the pale, blemish-free head that serious koi collectors value. Add one to your collection today, and watch the colors deepen and shift beautifully over time!

KANOKO ASAGI KOI FISH FAQS: SPECKLED PATTERNS, POND CARE, GROWTH & COLLECTIBILITY

What is a Kanoko Asagi koi? Classic Asagi meets red-speckled artistry.

+

A Kanoko Asagi has the traditional blue-gray netted back of an Asagi koi, but instead of solid red patches on the sides, it features red "Kanoko" speckles, creating a dotted, layered effect.

What makes Kanoko Asagi koi unique? Red polka-dot flair on a blue canvas.

+

These koi stand out for their speckled red markings. Rather than blending or bleeding, the red appears as individual, well-defined dots across the sides; like a fawn's coat, only glowing under water.

How large do Kanoko Asagi koi typically grow? Impressive size, more room for pattern.

+

With proper care, they can grow 26–30 inches. As they age, the Kanoko speckles may expand or shift, giving the fish a dynamic, living pattern.

Are Kanoko Asagi koi suitable for beginners? Hardy, peaceful, and easy to appreciate.

+

Yes. They’re hardy and adapt well to pond life. Their blue netting and red speckles offer clear visual cues for health, making care simpler for newer keepers.

Do Kanoko Asagi koi get along with other koi varieties? Gentle swimmers with bold contrast.

+

They’re peaceful and social, blending smoothly into mixed collections. Their blue base and dotted red make them a standout among solid or metallic koi.

What should I feed my Kanoko Asagi koi? Keep the netting crisp and reds vibrant.

+

A color-enhancing koi diet with ingredients like krill and spirulina helps the red Kanoko spots pop. Clean water and a balanced diet maintain scale quality and clarity.

How should I care for Kanoko Asagi koi during winter? Preserve color through seasonal shifts.

+

They handle the cold well, but clean, stable water is essential. Avoid sudden temperature drops to protect scale integrity and maintain red clarity.

Can Kanoko Asagi koi live in smaller ponds? Yes, but they’ll need room to develop.

+

While young koi adapt well to small spaces, mature Kanoko Asagi need room to swim and grow, especially to fully develop their red spotting and blue netting.

Are Kanoko Asagi koi rare? Not common, and not easily replicated.

+

Though Asagi are a well-established variety, the Kanoko pattern is unpredictable and not always stable. Fish with lasting, balanced spotting are especially prized.

Why buy Kanoko Asagi from Fitz’s Fish Ponds? Hand-selected for speckled perfection.

+

We choose Kanoko Asagi for clean netting, even red speckles, and ideal head clarity. Each fish is selected to offer unique beauty and strong, lasting form in your pond.
