Description

The Showa is a magnificent Koi. They are black Koi, with a white and red pattern.The white, red, and black all fit together perfectly. The beauty of this Koi is a true example of the Japanese breeder's ability to creature living works of art. A good Showa will have a nice balance of color. The pattern must be easy on the eyes and there should be sharp edges between the patterns. Showa are created by breeding a Kohaku with a Shiro Utsuri.

The Japanese Showa, also known as Showa Sanshoku is a member of the "Gosanke" category of ornamental Koi and is highly prized for its balanced pattern and sharp colors.

Many people have a hard time telling the difference between a Showa and a Sanke. Here is the difference:

  1. Showa are black Koi, with a white and red pattern. Sanke are white Koi, with red and black patterns.
  2. Showa have black on their heads. Sanke don't.
