Koi Harvest - ISA Koi Farm - Famous Showa Breeder

[@lonivogler6449]

I really appreciate that you share the disappointments as well as the triumphs; that's not something that I see many other professionals doing. I meant to comment previously on how helpful it is when you specifically point out the different birth defects. It helps me know what to watch out for if I'm buying a new water puppy or doing one of my selection of my tosai from my modest backyard spawn this year .

Some amazing koi great video Ricky 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks.

Number 2 with the black head, amazing! Happily make room in my pond for that. Some wonderful fish. Stay safe and well 👍🏻

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

Good choice 👍

[@richardbrunton2068]

Another great video, beautiful koi. Cheers 👍

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

Thanks.

[@geoffwinn3884]

Very honest points about a couple of the koi with bent heads, but they would be barely noticeable to most koi keepers and they hardly detract with the overall quality of these koi. Would be great to see the nisai Isa showa when they arrive

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

It’s a nice opportunity for someone to get a super fish at a bargain price.

[@KoiCarpKyle2393]

Great video once again 👏🏻 👍they are all looking well buddy 💯 a bloody dam shame about the 1 head being abit bent but its still a beautifully koi👍your no. 2s are 🔥 them next year wow 😎 I'll be looking farward to the follow on video to this matey 😁😎🐟

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

Yeah tell me about it but like I said that’s the game I play it’s to be expected.

[@KoiCarpKyle2393]

@@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi it can swing in around abouts i guess bud specially on the scale and mass of koi you deal with 👍 and iv just sent a video of my Showa i told you about to koi talk and whole sale messager I managed to get a few videos of some koi today all seem ok no visible problems 👍🐟

[@somersetkoi8309]

Wow 👍 loving these videos mate

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

Thanks.

[@Matsuba81]

Real interesting video and great to see the development they are stunning , i can imagine some of those being real beasts next year . Looking forward to the next one !

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

I’m excited to see them next year also.

[@mrkev8529]

Amazing Isa Showa👏 even the ones with slight defects would grace and be standout fish in most ponds👌

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

I agree Kev, most people won’t see it and can snap up a bargain.

[@CutBackTvChannel]

superb

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

Thank you .

[@geoffwinn3884]

Imo Isa are one of the top 5 showa breeders along with Dainichi, Ueno, Momotaro and Sekiguchi, although I have seen some lovely examples from Tamaura recently

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

Isa and Dainichi for me in the very top tier Geoff. All those other breeders you mention are great but I don’t believe they are on the same level as those guys.

[@justinoliver9518]

great video i would enjoy some of these fish in my pond. especially the wonky headed ones. but keep up the good work. unfortunately i'm in texas

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

Glad you enjoyed it. How is the koi scene in Texas?

[@justinoliver9518]

@@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi it is good. I have a 20,000 in-ground liner pond myself.

[@leeoliver4063]

Isa showa oooze quality and mega growth

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

They certainly do, thanks.

[@Robbie_Griffiths]

Great video, really enjoyed watching that. You mentioned about the filtration on the 3500 gallon pond that these were raised in, just wondering what sort of % water you are changing a week as I’m assuming you are feeding plenty to get the high growth rates. Keep up the good work with the videos 👍

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

On this particular pond it is topped up daily form what is lost by the drum cleaning. As a percentage I don’t know what that is but I only change more of the pond is in need of it.

[@high_fructose_corn_syrup]

Hi, i know with Isa, the sumi is known to show up later.. about 3-4 yrs. Can you tell me how the red is? Does it tend to develop more or disappear more with age? If the red isnt crisp lines and looks faded, does that mean they are losing that red color or developing it?

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

I’d really have to see a picture but Beni doesn’t develop like Sumi. As in it won’t come and go. If it fades it will likely go and never come back.

[@Samp2503]

Will there be a updated video of these soon? Would love to see how they are getting on now!

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

On some of the fish yes.

[@Samp2503]

@@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi Great, I look forward to it. Isa Showa really are something else, I have had to stop buying them as 3 is enough..for now.

[@reece2479]

Would love that Showa at the 18:00 mark even with the deformity. How would I go about enquiring to purchase?

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

Please contact one of our dealers on this list koi-wholesale.co.uk/dealers and they can assist you.

[@KoiAquaponics]

There's a USA dealer selling $500 Isa showa, around 10-12", do you think there's quality at that price range for tosai?

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

If you know what you are looking for then yes, absolutely!

[@edlesboroughkoipondstevech3546]

Hi interesting and informative video, can i have first refusal on the showa with the wonky head please?

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

Hi, That fish has been sold to KoiMan Enterprises. Please look them up on Facebook.

[@richardmullins1656]

sorry koi 13and a half minutes in never been a Kindai

[@geoffwinn3884]

Of course it’s kindai. Just because it has equal 1/3 of each colour it definitely fits the description of kindai which means modern

[@richardmullins1656]

@@geoffwinn3884 not for me & i know what kindai means, just my opinion

[@geoffwinn3884]

@@richardmullins1656 👍that’s the beauty of this hobby Richard - we all like or prefer different koi or styles and each to their own.

[@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi]

If that’s not a Kindai Showa then I’m David Beckham. Further explanation would be appreciated.

[@richardmullins1656]

@@Ricky_Stoddart_Koi Hi David how's posh 🤣 just my opinion i have four kindai but i only class two as proper kindai , for me a lot more white and a dappled colour pattern keep safe
