My Goodness! loooook at the size of those koi around 3:00 !!!

[@AnthonysOutdoors]

What were those first 3 fish in the first bowl? Asagi, ?, ?. Those 3 fish would be amazing swimming next to each other in a pond.

[@MarkGardnerNTVfree]

Aka Matsuba, Ki Matsuba and Asagi......if I am thinking of the correct shot....

هل هذه الأسماك صالحة لأكل ارجوكم اريد الإجابة

[@Aiken47]

How do they match water, ph hardness to that of the koi’s home conditions.

[@MarkGardnerNTVfree]

They really don't make a huge issue about such things to be honest

[@Robocupeful]

Koi can adapt quickly as long as they move to a clean water, although they prefer to move to a warmer water rather than the colder one.

[@coleomo]

I think most of the water in japan has similar qualities if from a non treated source. You would probably only see issues if they were put into water from another area/ or country with vastly different hardness/ph

[@patstokes3615]

There is true preference toward the White and Orange. Breeders will stop bring anything else if only one kind is ever going to win. Why bother with all the work.

[@MarkGardnerNTVfree]

There are many prizes beyond the Grand Champion. Yes there is a preference to red and white 'Kohaku', they are simply the most refined and the original variety of Koi, hence they win many Grand Champion prizes, although not always.
