Koi Video


Right now we are in Japan and on our way to Niigata to buy and look at koi. It is too bad that we can't buy every fish we want but it is always a privilege to be in Yamakoshi and go the Ojiya Koi Show. Last year we missed the show but were able to got o Yamakoshi the week later. I will try my best to add pics as we visit the many koi farms. Here is a video of some of the koi at our farm.

Niigata 09 Shipment Comes In 11/25

Niigata Koi Shipment
We are very excited to announce that this year’s annual Niigata koi shipment is scheduled to come in on Wednesday November 25th. The koi will be quarantined at Ushijima Nishikigoi in Kaneohe. This means that they will not be available to perchance and take home for another few weeks, however you may come to look and purchase at a later time. Please call Bruce to schedule an appointment.

Prices to follow
The number one reason why we quarantine our koi is for our customers. It is important for the health of the fish and the fish you already have in you pond. An article form Koi USA explains in more detail about why and how you should quarantine. http://www.usakoi.com/article7.html We now the excitement of getting new koi for you pond and we know how much you may want to take the koi home that day but for the safety of the fish and for your koi at home we will not sell our koi until the quarantine is over. Thank you
