 Shusui have been crossbred between Doitsu Koi and Asagi, and their points for
appreciation, therefore, are basically the same as those for Asagi.
Shusui also have the tendency to show black
spots in the head region as they grow big. Koi with spotless head region are valued highly, of course.
The
arrangement of scales is also important. It is desirable that scales are visible only the back and the regions of lateral
lines -- no undesirable scales in any other place. Hi on the belly covering over the lateral lines are showy. |
