Warm Gold on Luminous White

The Doitsu Hariwake is a variety that rewards a closer look. At first glance, this 10"–12" Premium specimen appears almost ethereal — a near-translucent, pearlescent white body that seems to glow from within. Look closer and you'll find warm golden-orange (hariwake) patches that deepen toward the head, creating a soft, painterly contrast against the clean white base. The Doitsu scalation keeps the body smooth and uncluttered, with just a single row of mirror scales tracing the dorsal line, letting the color do all the talking.

Selected at the Premium grade for its clean white base, rich hariwake coloration, strong body conformation, and the refined Doitsu scale pattern that defines this variety at its best.

What Makes This Fish Special

• Luminous, near-translucent white base with warm golden-orange (hariwake) patches
• Smooth Doitsu body — clean scalation with a single mirror-scale dorsal row
• Premium grade — selected for color quality, body shape, and scale clarity
• 10"–12" size — an established fish with fully developed coloration

Care Notes

Doitsu Hariwake are peaceful, adaptable koi that thrive in well-maintained ponds with good filtration. Feed a color-enhancing diet like Blackwater Color Enhancing to maintain and deepen the golden hariwake pattern. Minimum pond size of 1,000 gallons recommended.
