Breed: Yamabuki Ogon

The Yamabuki Ogon is a variety of Hikarimuji, which translates to "single-coloured metallic koi." Unlike other koi, which may have intricate patterns, the Yamabuki Ogon is celebrated for its uniform, metallic yellow-golden hue. The Yamabuki Ogon is one of the most popular and sought-after koi varieties, primarily because of its bright, reflective scales that add a shimmering effect to any pond.
Originating from Japan, the Yamabuki Ogon was first developed in the mid-20th century through selective breeding. The goal was to create a koi that embodies the pure elegance of a single, striking colour. It is part of the Ogon class of koi, which are all metallic and solid-coloured, but the Yamabuki's golden-yellow colour is particularly prized for its resemblance to gold, symbolising wealth and prosperity in Japanese culture.
