Ushijima Nishikigoi Koi Buying Trip 2016

Here is quick recap of the koi we purchased in October of 2016 in Niigata, Japan. The shipment will be coming in to our farm in Kaneohe, HI the beginning of December.

Yagenji 2016

This is a video and pics of our 2016 Koi buying trip to Yamakoshi, in the Niigata prefecture of Japan. This year we purchased nisai kohaku, showa, asagi, and a sansai showa.

Maruju 2016

Here is a short video of our trip to Maruju koi farm. We picked up nisai ginrin showa, sumi goromo, kohaku, showa and doitsu sanke. Some of the nisai seem small in the video but its just that the showa and goromo are so thick.

Marusada 2016

One of the places that we enjoying going to visit is Marusada. His showa are amazing. Sadao has give the business over to his son therefore we haven't purchased koi for them in a few years but this year both father and son were there to great us and show us some of their yonsai and gosai showa. We would have liked to get all three but we had to settle with one. Sorry for the poor lighting, it was pouring that day.

Marusho 2016

Our annual trip to Japan has come and gone but we are excited to get our koi in the next few weeks. This is a video of koi breeder Marusho. Shosaku is a smaller breeder but has some of the best kohaku and goromo. Although we didn't purchase any this year, he also breeds metallic koi like kin showa and kujyaku. Enjoy!!!
