      A Blue Koi???

      I bought this Soragoi about three weeks ago and at first didn’t pay too much attention, I just wanted a Soragoi. But now that I’ve seen him closer it has a blue hue and I find it fascinating. Will he keep this blue color or turn more black or grey?

      They tend to get darker in the summer and lighter in the winter.

      It really isn't blue but rather a shade of gray. It will get much darker and no longer look that way. It is a Soragoi.
      people like to vehemently defend their purchases and find it incredulous that anything could be better

      I think this is a black koi. They call the Karasu ( meaning Black in Japanese or Crow). Why I know I have one lol

      Well, he/she is growing very fast and now past the 12-inch mark. I’ll keep everyone updated and far as development of color goes. It is my favorite Koi to watch, such a beautiful scale pattern. At least for my untrained eye.

      Thanks everyone for the responses!
