ISA KOI FARM - SHOWA Koi - Tosai Selection!

In this video Ricky takes us through the first Koi Wholesale first selection process of a batch of 248 new tosai Showa from the renowned ISA Koi Farm.
After the success with ISA Showa last year (see our previous video on this link • Koi Harvest - ISA Koi ... ) Ricky has been able to get hold of even more this year and they were delivered to our dedicated Koi facility in November 2021. This batch looks even more promising than the awesome batch we had last year, so this is definitely one to watch the development as we continue with follow-up videos over the coming months.

Fab video love how quick you eye what you like & want and there are still some cracking fish . Very much hoping my local dealer will have some!!

[@KoiWholesale]

With a 1000 koi to get through I can’t hang about 😁. Have a chat with them I’m sure they’ll be able to help.

[@blardymunggas6884]

Some really nice showa tosai you got there. I like dainichi esoecially once they reach sansai. With isa , we get to enjoy it earlier

[@blardymunggas6884]

Have u tried saki Hikari Balance R? I find it gives better results than Saki Growth for tosai. Both great pellet

[@KoiWholesale]

Yes patience is needed with Dainichi but worth the wait.

[@KoiWholesale]

No I haven’t only Balance but I like a high fat content for gaining volume and growth which is why I choose Saki Growth.

[@emash2012]

Evening Ricky great content as usual . For a future video could we see some of your most valuable bigger pieces?

[@KoiWholesale]

Certainly we’ll look at some shorter appreciation videos for stuff like that.

[@jeroennishikigoi1164]

Ricky its again amazing that you take us on your journey! Keep it simple!

[@KoiWholesale]

Thank you, it’s a pleasure to share.

[@geoffwinn3884]

Another great video Ricky - some lovely examples - what size are you hoping to achieve when they are finishing their growth stage ? 45 to 50cm ?

[@KoiWholesale]

I think that is a realistic size by the end of the normal growing season given where they are currently at.

[@high_fructose_corn_syrup]

Would be interesting to know.. have they ever passed on a koi and then seen it afterwards and regretted not selecting/keeping it?

[@KoiWholesale]

It will have happened for sure but we all learn it’s a part of the game and come to accept it.

[@high_fructose_corn_syrup]

​@KoiWholesale was just curious and hopeful that someone like me could possibly (i know the chances are slim) score a great fish at a culls price lol a girl can hope lol 😂❤

[@high_fructose_corn_syrup]

Im curious.. ive noticed some koi (sanke, showa etc) should have white faces but they look peach colored. I honestly do NOT like the looks of that. Do you know if thats a food related thing or if its genetic? If its food related that means its correctable right? Im asking about this because Im on the hunt for a nice Isa showa and a couple isa tosai i like have the peachish colored faces..

[@KoiWholesale]

It can be common in young fish, color food will create it also. Male fish naturally have this yellow colour more than female which is hard to get rid of. A good shiroji conditioning program should improve it.

[@michaeldyer1322]

great infro but as you said buy what YOU like

[@KoiWholesale]

Yes doesn’t matter what the level or your knowledge you still need to like what you are buying.

[@micklawson1958]

Hi mate will you ever sell to the public direct

[@KoiWholesale]

No is the simple answer to that one. The business isn’t built for it and I have too much respect for all of the dealers I work with. I’m curious to know what benefits you see there being to dealing with my directly over using one of the dealers I supply?

[@derylsmith3429]
