Many thanks for posting this Koi Guide. I have a growing Koi similar to the last fish that is difficult for me to tell if it is a Sanke or Showa. Will be looking closely today using your video as reference. Gonna follow your channel for more interesting posting, cheers mate!
This is really helpful and really enjoying to watch.. can you make a video on how to determine whether a koi is male or female at an early stage?? It would be a great collection in your channel..
Hi there, thanks for your comment and compliment. There is a video about how to determine male and female, you can view it here: ruclips.net/video/aXextLLdm8M/видео.html. It is however very difficult to do this at an early stage.
8:19. Admit it now! How many of you thought or shouted Sanke when that koi got in the tub ? I did! Thank you for your knowledge. That has helped me a lot. Waw!!!
In addition sir, Sumi in showa are large patches that goes down-across the lateral line of the body. While, sanke has smaller spots (but sometimes a bit larger patches) that are on the top part of the body, it does not go down the lateral line. 😊
That's not a stupid question. You can use the indications that I provided in this video. The base colour for showa can be seen in the first couple of days, Showa baby koi are black while sanke baby koi are white. When they are older the indications I provided in the video can be used.
Yes you can see it with your eyes. But of course when they are larger and you know it is a Showa: you know that the Koi has a base colour that is black. When it is a Sanke, you know that the base colour is white.

Thank you! I am happy to hear this compliment!
8:19. Admit it now! How many of you thought or shouted Sanke when that koi got in the tub
? I did!
Thank you for your knowledge. That has helped me a lot. Waw!!!
Haha, but that will never happen again now you got these insights 🏆! Thanks a lot for your compliments!
Lol sure did
Ha! It surely is a showa though 😉
In addition sir, Sumi in showa are large patches that goes down-across the lateral line of the body. While, sanke has smaller spots (but sometimes a bit larger patches) that are on the top part of the body, it does not go down the lateral line. 😊
There are some good ways to distinguish Sanke & Showa easily. Good addition! 😉
Great explanation , thanks for sharing . I'll go and double check my koi now 👍
Hopefully it will work out! Great to hear, thanks a lot 👍
How can you determine base colour? I feel stupid asking...but please tell me anyway..
That's not a stupid question. You can use the indications that I provided in this video. The base colour for showa can be seen in the first couple of days, Showa baby koi are black while sanke baby koi are white. When they are older the indications I provided in the video can be used.
@@Aboutkoi thank you so much....so when they are guppy sized you can determine the base colour?
Yes you can see it with your eyes. But of course when they are larger and you know it is a Showa: you know that the Koi has a base colour that is black. When it is a Sanke, you know that the base colour is white.
Why do some have that yellowish color on their faces? Does it go away? Is it genetic or food related?
It can be both genetics and food related. Usually when Koo become a bit older it becomes more white / egg shell white
EXCELLENT
Thanks a lot! Started trying for your own Koi? 😃
Kindai showa 😀
You got it 😉
please indonesia subtitle
It should be possible to auto translate to Indonesian language 👍
