Koromo Grade A Koi Carp Cyprinus Carpio
Koromo koi fish (which are also sometimes referred to as Goromo koi fish) are known for their unusual colouring. The Koromo are white and non-metallic with blue reticulation on the scales. This gives the illusion of mesh overlaying a red pattern which adds to the intrigue of this koi fish variety. The unique patterning of the Koromo koi fish is what earned it the title of “Robed Koi” among enthusiasts. When looking for a Koromo koi fish, a balanced Kohaku pattern is indicative of higher quality.
The Origins of the Goromo Koi Fish
“Koromo” literally means “Robed” in Japanese and it’s said that the variety was produced by the successful cross breeding between the Kohaku koi and the Asagi koi. This was accidental as the intended result was to produce a Kohaku koi with a deeper red patterning. Once the Koromo was born, however, it struck a chord and became well-known for its striking pattern and the variety persisted.
