Bekko

Bekko

The Bekko Koi is a captivating and unique variety within the Koi fish species, renowned for its striking and minimalistic coloration. This breed is characterized by its predominantly solid white, red, or yellow body accentuated with distinct, jet-black markings. These black markings, known as "sumi," are typically scattered in an irregular and mosaic-like pattern, giving the Bekko its distinctive appearance. Unlike other Koi varieties that display a plethora of colors, the Bekko's allure lies in its simplicity and the stark contrast between the base color and its black spots. There are three main types of Bekko Koi based on their base color: the Shiro Bekko, with a white body; the Aka Bekko, with a red body; and the Ki Bekko, with a yellow body. The Bekko is appreciated for its elegance and is a favorite among Koi enthusiasts who prefer understated beauty. These Koi are relatively hardy, making them suitable for various pond environments. Their distinctive patterns can transform any pond into a serene and picturesque setting, showcasing the artful beauty that the Bekko Koi brings to aquatic landscapes.
