Kikisui is a fascinating and visually appealing variety of Nishikigoi, known for its unique coloration and patterning. This koi variety is essentially a scaleless (Doitsu) version of a Kohaku, featuring a white body with red (Hi) patterns. What distinguishes Kikisui is the combination of its vibrant red patterns on a clean, white background, and the absence of scales, which gives the skin a smooth, glossy appearance. The name “Kikisui” translates to “chrysanthemum water,” reflecting the beauty and delicacy of its appearance.
