What Makes Aigoromo So Special?

Aigoromo (pronounced eye-go-roh-moh) is a graceful and refined koi variety that blends the purity of Kohaku with the artistic overlay of delicate, indigo-patterned reticulation.

“Ai” means indigo in Japanese, and it’s this unique blue-gray netting over the red (hi) that gives Aigoromo its signature elegance and painterly charm.

Unlike its solid-colored Kohaku cousins, Aigoromo presents an added layer of beauty—where each scale becomes a brushstroke, and every pattern feels hand-painted by nature.

Look for:

• A bright white base (shiroji) that sets the stage for clean, vibrant red (hi) markings

• Even reticulation—blue or indigo edges outlining the red patches, creating a soft, lacy appearance

• Balanced, symmetrical patterns with strong definition on the head and body

• A calm, graceful presence in the water, emphasizing harmony over contrast

Aigoromo’s beauty lies not in boldness, but in refinement. Its understated elegance and quiet sophistication make it a favorite among collectors who appreciate subtlety and balance. As the koi matures, its patterns can deepen in complexity, adding new layers of texture and emotion.

A well-bred Aigoromo is poetry in motion, they are an embodiment of Japanese aesthetic ideals, where simplicity, grace, and depth unite in living form.
