Breeders Specializing in Ginga Koi Fish:

Ikarashi

Ginga Koi live up to their name, “Ginga,” which means Milky Way, thanks to their shimmering white body dotted with shifting, inky-black markings. They’re metallic-scaled versions of the sleek Kikokuryu, warming ponds with cosmic visual drama. The black patches appear to drift across their surface as they grow, giving each koi a unique, evolving appearance.

At Fitz’s Fish Ponds, we select Ginga koi from Ikarashi for their bright metallic sheen, bold contrast, and patterns that seem to move with the water. Beni Ginga varieties, with rich red accents, often enhance that cosmic quality these koi are known for. Browse the collection below and bring home a koi that captures the look of a shifting night sky in your pond today.
