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. |
