Breeders Specializing in Budo Goromo Koi Fish:

Marushin

Thanks to their atypical, almost grape-colored reticulation resting on rich red hi markings, Budo Goromo koi are visually stunning koi varieties. Their bold contrast and wine-hued tones make the word "Budo," which translates to “grape” in Japanese, particularly fitting.

In addition to the Budo moniker, these koi have a base of pure white and deep violet or burgundy scale edges on the hi, which gives them a refined artistry that distinguishes them from other Goromo types.

Budo Goromo is often compared to Ai Goromo, but the rich, velvety appearance created by the overlay sets Budo Goromo apart. The grape-colored, netted reticulated skin provides stunning visual complexity alongside the white-skinned base. Their age only enhances their vividness.

Hand-selected for clarity, balance, and the potential for stunning growth, each koi at Fitz’s Fish Ponds comes from the renowned Marushin Koi Farm in Japan. Budo Goromo is a perfect addition to your pond collection.

If you want to add a dramatic centerpiece for your aquatic landscape that combines bold coloration with a unique style, check out our selection of Budo Goromo koi fish online.
