Shiro Bekko koi stand out with their clean white base and distinct black markings scattered along the back and sides. These bold, isolated sumi spots are the defining feature of the Bekko variety. “Shiro” means white, and “Bekko” translates to “tortoiseshell,” reflecting the style and placement of the markings. Unlike Sanke koi, Shiro Bekko contains no red hi, offering a more minimalist but highly refined look.

At Fitz’s Fish Ponds, we select Shiro Bekko koi from top breeders like Maruhiro and Yamanaka Oya for their snow-white skin, clean head area, and sharp black markings. These koi offer classic contrast and bring a refined, minimalist beauty to any pond. Browse the collection below and choose a koi that combines simplicity with bold patterning.
