Asagi

Among the most ancient koi breeds is the Asagi. Renowned for its stoic and subdued nature, some even consider it an acquired taste. Despite being fully scaled and lacking metallic markings, the Asagi’s long history is sometimes overshadowed by its resemblance to the wild black carp, Magoi. Some hobbyists perceive them as unrefined or dull, not “proper” koi. Indeed, their understated elegance stands in contrast to the brilliantly colored Showa or flashy Hikariutsuri varieties. However, their quiet charm provides a beautiful counterpoint to their more vibrant pond mates. Additionally, Asagi have the potential to grow remarkably large.
