Breeders Speicalizing in Bekko Koi Fish:

Maruhiro

Bekko koi is an ageless and sophisticated koi variety, recognized for its sheer simplicity combined with striking black markings on solid-colored bodies. Bekko has three types: Shiro Bekko (white base), Aka Bekko (red base), and Ki Bekko (yellow base). All three feature the sparse, inky black sumi, which primarily rests on the back and creates a neat tortoiseshell-like effect.

Fitz's Fish Ponds sources these koi from Maruhiro, a reputable breeder based in Japan. Maruhiro is well-known for raising koi, which are visually stunning and well-proportioned. Each one is carefully hand-selected for vivid base coloration, clear pattern demarcation, and personality.

Whether you want it for a water garden feature, centerpiece, or reliable pond companion, our Bekko koi offers the perfect combination. If you're on the hunt for a beautiful koi that is pleasing to the eye and easy to care for, check out our collection of Bekko koi fish today, and turn your pond into a sight of calm elegance.

What is a Bekko koi?

+

A Bekko koi is a solid-colored koi (white, red, or yellow) marked with sparse black markings known as sumi. The sumi patterns on Bekko koi resemble a tortoiseshell and are minimal.

What are the different kinds of Bekko koi?

+

The three main types are known as Shiro Bekko (white body with black sumi), Aka Bekko (red body with black sumi), and Ki Bekko (yellow body with black sumi). All three share the same pattern structure but differ in their base colors.

How large do Bekko koi grow?

+

With proper care, Bekko koi usually grow 24 to 30 inches long. Genetics, feeding habits, and adequate pond space influence their size.

Are Bekko koi suitable for beginners?

+

Absolutely. Their hardy nature and clean patterns make them one of the easiest koi varieties for a beginner to handle. Unlike other delicate varieties, they are not prone to color fading from stress.

Do Bekko koi mix well with other koi?

+

Yes, they are very social and are best suited for community ponds. The neutral yet bold coloring enhances your pond’s overall appearance, contrasting with the more complexly colored koi.

What should I feed my Bekko koi for the best color?

+

Using color-enhancing koi pellets during warm months is advisable, and adding supplements like krill or spirulina can promote growth in Bekko koi.

Is it possible for Bekko koi to live in smaller ponds?

+

Yes, they tend to adapt well to smaller ponds, but only if the filtration system and water quality are efficient. However, having more space will enhance their growth rate and color development.

Why should I purchase a Bekko koi from Fitz’s Fish Ponds?

+

Our Bekko koi come from Maruhiro, a reputable Japanese breeder known for balanced koi. Our fish are carefully chosen for skin clarity, and pattern definition.

Are Bekko koi show quality?

+

Yes, especially those with clean skin and balanced sumi. Less is more, and the right amount of contrast and placement allows Bekko koi to shine in competitive koi shows.
