This 22-inch Ginrin Asagi has a clean, elegant look, with evenly aligned blue-gray reticulation across the back enhanced by bright, reflective ginrin scales. The net pattern is consistent from head to tail, giving the fish that orderly, traditional Asagi structure, while the sparkle adds a lively, light-catching quality that brings extra dimension to the surface. The head remains pale and uncluttered, helping maintain a fresh, balanced appearance.
The red hi is visible in the pectoral fins and subtly along the body, adding warmth without overpowering the cool tone of the base. The body shows a smooth, feminine frame with good length and proportion, allowing the pattern and ginrin to remain even and undistorted. For anyone looking for a Ginrin Asagi koi for sale with classic Japanese koi character and a bright Nishikigoi finish, this fish offers a refined, traditional look with a touch of added brilliance.
How are koi packaged for shipping?
Each koi is double-bagged with oxygen and shipped in an insulated, temperature-controlled box.
Do I need to be home when it arrives?
Yes — someone 18 or older needs to be available to receive the shipment as soon as it arrives. Prompt unboxing and acclimation is important for the fish’s health.
What happens in bad weather?
We may delay shipment during extreme weather to protect the koi, and will let you know if that happens.
Can I combine multiple koi into one shipment?
Yes — multiple purchases can typically be combined into a single shipment. Ask us about holding your koi if you’re still deciding on others.
Factors we account for
- Koi size and quantity — larger or multiple fish need more water volume and larger boxes.
- Box weight — water, oxygen, and insulation add real, billable weight.
- Distance and destination — domestic vs. international, and how remote the delivery address is.
- Season and weather — extreme heat or cold requires heat packs or extra insulation to protect the fish in transit.
- Speed of delivery — live animals ship overnight or via expedited air cargo, never standard ground.
