Tancho Grade A Koi Carp Cyprinus CarpioPure Tancho (tan-CHO) koi are only formally recognised to be sub-varieties of the Gosanke koi, that is, Kohaku, Sanke and Showa koi but the pattern itself can be seen in many other varieties including Goshiki and Hariwake koi.
The word ‘Tancho’ literally translates to ‘red sun’ and, as per their name, Tancho koi have a single circle of hi (red) colouration on their head resembling a red sun. To be a proper Tancho koi, this must be the only hi on the whole koi. So, a Tancho Kohaku must be pure white with only the Tancho pattern while Tancho Sanke and Tancho Showa can have a black and white pattern on the rest of the body as long as there is no other red apart from on the head. When referring to the pattern rather than the formal sub-variety, it is common to refer to it as a ‘Tancho spot’. For example, you could say that a particular Goshiki has a nice Tancho spot without referring to it as a Tancho Goshiki.
The first Tancho variety was the Tancho Kohaku and was produced by breeding 2 Kohaku koi together. This pairing produced a wide range of Kohaku fry with varying amounts of hi. Many of these would have been rejected and only the nicest ones keep on for growing and further breeding. At this point, no breeders were actively looking for a Tancho Kohaku, but it is said that one breeder came across a Kohaku fry with no hi on its body and the perfect spot of hi on its head.
The breeder decided to keep it even though it did not satisfy the requirements of a Kohaku at the time. But it did resemble the Japanese flag with its red sun on a pure white background and that appealed to the koi breeder and to many others who saw the fish. He decided to call it a Tancho koi after the red-crowned crane native to Japan which was called Tancho and had a single red spot on the crown of its head.
From this, the breeder was desperate to breed more koi like this beautiful Tancho he had found but soon found it to be incredibly difficult. The specific pattern of a Tancho is impossible to breed for and the breeders just have to get lucky with their fry. This means that the number of good quality Tancho in a batch of fry is much lower than many other varieties and this was quickly discovered by the original breeder and by other breeders who attempted to repeat his results. Eventually, however, more and more Tancho koi started to hit the market until it eventually became the popular variety that it is today. Unfortunately, it is not any easier to breed Tancho koi nowadays than it was then!

Super Fun Wine Gadget 🍷
Color: 4-in-1 Wine Aerator Set - Silver
This wine decanter is an absolute must-have for any wine lover. Compact and convenient, it makes aerating wine effortless. As it works, you can savor the bouquet opening up, enhancing the overall experience. I bought it for my husband, who enjoys his evening glass of wine, and he was amazed. He loves that he no longer has to pour manually. The automatic pourer features a touch button for easy installation and is compatible with almost any wine bottle. It fits standard bottles, doubles as a stopper for unfinished wine, and comes with a rechargeable USB cable that lasts up to three months on a single charge. Cleaning is simple—just run water through the tube, then place it upright in the dishwasher to dry safely. Straight out of the box, it’s a fantastic product with great value and excellent performance. What a fantastic product for wine enthusiasts to enjoy at parties and holiday gatherings. Highly recommended!!!! ✌😊
