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
