Butterfly metallic orange black and white scale

This dramatic koi features a deep, velvety black (Karasu) body with rich burnt orange along the fins and tail edges. The long, flowing fins are elegantly streaked with dark and warm tones, giving this fish a fierce, dragon-like silhouette. This fish measures approximately 8–9 inches — a large, mature specimen with a powerful and commanding presence.

Its dark body and warm fin accents suggest a Karasu or Hi Utsuri-type influence — a rare and mesmerizing variety that serves as a dramatic centerpiece in any pond.
