Japanese terms for style of pattern:

Tancho Kohaku: is a white koi with a red spot on its head.
Inazuma Kohaku: has a continous red marking from head to the tail, but with variation.
Nidan Kohaku: has two red markings.
Sadan Kohaku: has three red markings.
Yondan Kohaku: has four red markings.
how about five, six, seven red markings?
