Ginrin Showa koi adds a layer of shimmer to the traditional Showa variety. This variation retains the same black base, red hi, and white markings fused with myriad shimmering, diamond-like scales on the body. Ginrin scales significantly enhance the fish's appearance, allowing them to shine with a metallic glow as they swim.

Like all Showa, Ginrin Showa has black patterning extending to the head, a primary marker of distinction from Sanke and other similar varieties. With natural sunlight, the eyes will be dazzled by scale-by-scale brilliance. Each time Ginrin Showa turns, it unveils a new bright shimmer, bold color, and crisp contrast.

Fitz’s Fish Ponds offers even more with a curated selection of Ginrin Showa koi from top-tier breeders like Koda and Marushin. Known for their striking color distribution, impressive scale shine, and bold pattern contrast, these breeders consistently produce koi that captivate from every angle. Whether you want to add depth or a flash of brilliance to your pond, our Ginrin Showa collection has the perfect showstopper. Shop online today and find your next centerpiece koi.

GINRIN SHOWA KOI FISH FAQS

What is a Ginrin Showa Koi?

+

Unlike a traditional Showa koi, Ginrin Showa Koi has sparkly, reflective scales that stand out against their black, red, and white pattern.

When do you ship the koi?

+

We ship all our koi fish Monday–Wednesday using next-day air. If you would like a specific arrival date for your order, please let us know in the order comments when you checkout.

How does Ginrin Showa differ from regular Showa?

+

The base color and pattern are the same for both, but the Ginrin Showa has a layer of reflective scales on top of the light that stands out. That’s what makes them flashier compared to flat Showa.

What should I look for in a good Ginrin Showa?

+

Look for clean color separation, especially on the head, and an even number of reflective scales. A strong and defined sumi pattern with balanced hi patches also helps.

How big can Ginrin Showa koi grow?

+

They can grow as big as 24 to 30 inches when conditions are ideal. Space, proper nutrients, and clean water help with growth a lot.

Is Ginrin Showa suitable for backyard ponds?

+

Absolutely. Their scales are even more reflective in sunlight, which makes them stand out even more in outdoor ponds.

Does Ginrin Showa get along with other koi?

+

Yes, they are social and calm, just like other varieties of koi. They add variety to multi-variety ponds and help achieve a nice visual blend.

As a koi gets older, do the reflective scales change?

+

The Ginrin scales might become more pronounced as the koi ages, but the clarity and sharpness will always depend on the fish's genetics and care.

What should I feed my Showa koi Ginrin?

+

A basic koi pellet diet with added color-enhancing supplements works just fine for them. You can also give them high-protein treats such as shrimp and silkworms in the warmer months.

Is it possible to keep a Showa Ginrin in a small pond?

+

They can start in smaller setups, but to maintain long-term health and growth, they benefit more from larger, well-aerated ponds with good filtration.

Why put a Ginrin Showa in my pond?

+

If you are looking for a bold and colorful fish that catches the eye, Ginrin Showa has all of that and more. They are the perfect blend of vibrant colors and patterns and high-class sparkle.
