0715 - Ginrin Tancho Ochiba [Maruhiro]

The Ginrin Tancho Ochiba is a rare and visually captivating variety of Japanese Koi Carp, prized for its unique combination of features.

This striking fish displays a beautiful silvery-grey or bronze body, typical of the Ochiba Shigure (“autumn leaves on water”) variety, adorned with sparkling, diamond-like Ginrin (silver-reflective) scales. The hallmark of the Tancho variety is a single, bold circular patch of colour, usually copper or brown, centered on the top of the head, reminiscent of the Japanese flag.

Ginrin Tancho Ochiba are highly valued for their harmonious blend of subtle, earthy tones and shimmering brilliance. The best examples showcase a clear, well-defined head marking, even ginrin scaling, and smooth, unblemished skin. Their tranquil beauty and rarity make them a standout addition to any collection.

This fish is ideal for Koi enthusiasts seeking a unique, eye-catching fish that combines classic Tancho elegance, the autumnal charm of Ochiba, and the sparkling allure of Ginrin scales. Perfect for adding both subtlety and sparkle to any pond or collection.
