Bekko ("Beck-Oh"): Solid body colored koi with
black markings. Utsuri are often similar in appearance, but are black
koi with single complementary color varieties. I like to think of
Bekko as "Turtle" with markings on their backs only... unlike
the Utsurimono whose dark body bands extend under/around the belly.
Bekko heads should be free of black markings and the the same
depth of color as the body. The black markings should be balanced
symmetrically along the body of the Koi. A Bekkos' fins can have
some black, as with Sanke.
| Aka Bekko: A red koi with some black
pattern. |
|
| Ki Bekko: A yellow koi with some black
markings. |
|
| Shiro Bekko: A white koi with some black
markings. |
