CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT TYPE OF KOI THIS IS?

Bronze Ogon

IS THE FISH A GOOD QUALITY OR NOT

Hi,

I agree with Jaco, it looks like a Doitsu Bronze Ogon, and its a good pond fish.

I have one of 90cm + and has a real presence in the pond.
Not really a show koi but still very nice.

Jaco,

plaas foto asb.

How about thse beauties.

Bronze Ghost Koi. Black on head and around eyes. Unique special koi.

Hi Goldielocks,

There is not such a thing as a Ghost Koi!

It is a name used by Magnoy Koi Farm in Israel, in Japan it will be classified under Kawarimono.

KAWARIMONO
TRANSLATION IN ENGLISH AN ECCENTRIC KOI
AM I RIGHT OR NOT
1, BRONZE OGON
2, DOITSU BRONZE OGON
3, BRONZE GHOST
4, KAWARIMONO
WHICH ONE

Kawarimono is a broad classification used for a wide variety of non metallic koi that don't fit into other classes. Some examples are breeds of their own, while others display "one-of-a-kind" color and patterning. Furthermore, certain koi are placed in Kawarimono because they deviate so much from the judging criteria applied to what would typically be their own variety.

Hi,
I would suggest looking in the Hikarimono class.

Hikarimono = single coloured metallic koi.

Then add the Doitsu scales -

Then look at the gold. (kin) -

And there is some black in there. (matsuba)

So perhaps a doitsu kin matsuba - what do you think?

Jaco what is the koi in the third picture you posted? Blue, Red and Black ...... very interesting fish.

Regards,
Chris

Kawarimono (変わり者 ?) A "catch-all" term for koi that cannot be put into one of the other categories. This is a competition category (you cannot buy a "kawarigoi" from a pet shop) and many new varieties of koi compete against each other within this one category. Also known as kawarigoi (変わり鯉 ?)[citation needed]

Ok,

KAWARIMONO:
A classification of all Non-metallic Koi not included in any other group
HIKARIMONO:
The classification for single-colouerd metallic Koi
HIKARIMOYO-MONO:
A classification including all metallic Koi with two or more colours, EXCEPT metallic Utsurimono and Showa
HIKARI-UTSURIMONO:
Metallis Utsuri and Showa.
DOISTU:
Kagamigoi;
A Koi with scales along the dorsal and lateral lines only, or
Kawagoi;
A Koi having almost no scales at all ( Also called a Leather Koi)
( A doitsu may be placed in any of the above mentioned groups)

Doitsu Kujaku=Hikarimoyo-mono
Doistu Ogon = Hikarimono
Doistu Beni-goi = Kawarimono

Hi Chris,
