Goshiki were created in the early 1900’s by crossing Asgagi with Kohaku. The end result is a fish, whose name translates literally as ‘five colours’. Goshiki will normally display the colours of a Kohaku (red & white), but with a net like reticulation (typical of the Asagi) existing on the skin surface in black, blue and grey. This makes for an incredibly striking fish which is precisely the negative of a Kohaku. 

This particular Koi has glittering scales and the body is grey. The red (hi) covers both the front -thrid and the back-third, with grey reticulation in the middle.
