The Butterfly Koi breeding program originated in the United States in the early 1980's.
At that time, Wyatt Lefever
obtained some unusual long-finned hybrid Asian carp. He started a breeding program
crossing them with metallic colored Koi resulting in "Butterfly Koi".
Butterfly (long-finned) Koi are not only beautiful with long flowing fins, but they are
quite hardy and able to withstand colder temperatures better than many traditional Koi.
