It’s quite amazing to see the father when he picks up the fish vs the sons. All are supremely skilled, but the father just has a way to settle the fish down, they are much calmer. Plus, he doesn’t just pick them up, he cradles and gives them hand-hugs, if that makes sense. Great to watch

I love the amount of respect they show towards the fishes. Japanese people are definitely the best koi breeders. Thanks for sharing

The colours and the markings on these fish are just wow absolutely stunning

21:30 Woah! Look how beautiful that country side is!!! I wish it were that beautiful here in the US where I'm at. That view is stunning! Japan has beauty like no other thanks to the people taking great care of it. Beautiful island country! I love these traditional farms that go down from generation to generation where their craft is perfected to a tee too. The passion and pride they take in their work is incredible.

[@allthenamesiwantedweretaken]

I have to say, watching this was.. oddly relaxing and beautiful. I think it was the music, paired with the subject of creating life. It comforts me that because Koi are historically quite sacred in Japanese culture, the Koi are treated with absolute respect and care.

I spent more than 20 years as a koi keeper. Now that I am to old ,with no one to do the work. I no longer have them. They are truly living jewels and I miss sitting near the pond or waterfalls feeding the koi. It was the only time I relaxed. I should have done more relaxing near the pond.

[@thomasgreenall9173]

Thanks for the footage, I have a long lasting passion for fish, especially koi I find watching koi so relaxing, I simply allow all my stress and frustration be absorbed by the red colours and allow grief and sorrow to be absorbed by the black colours. I am truly grateful that I am able to visit koi farms and competions in Japan through the Internet. An educational treat for the senses

Love learning about this process. I wish a little more detail was provided about what happens to non selected koi and what koi are considered "good" vs "bad" I wish there was more narration in some parts as well as I missed information a few times because of sudden text and those parts I had to replay several times because the text went away too fast.

The not so perfect koi are sold to fish stores. I bought 2 beauties from a breeder, raised them from youngsters. They became so friendly that I ended up loving them like a cat or dog. I had to find them a new home around 7 years old and I miss them to this day. Hope they are doing well.

Love seeing these beautiful swimming jewels. You have shown some exceptional Koi in your visits. Thank you. My favorite is the 3 colored...just like a Calico Cat. My favorite also. It would be helpful if when putting written script on the video if you could leave it up for a moment longer. I read well but have difficulty reading it all. Thank you for your consideration.

[@StoneWolf99801]

What happens to the rejected ones? I'm only half way through so I hope they cover that... I bought Koi at a privately owned pet store when I was a teenager, had them in a 55 galon fish tank until they were aboht 112 inches each and about 4 years old... Then gave them to a friend who had a pond. I never looked up what kind they were, i remember I had one that was a shiny pearly metallic yellow gold in color with large plate like scale down its back. She was lovely! She was a butterfly koi with the longer fancy fins. She ended up being bigger than all the regular one's. I bought them all when they were about 3 inches in size and about $9. I think the gold butterfly was $15. This was back in the early 90's maybe late 80's.....

[@lukaemmersontheenigmaticun4621]

I know some fish owners will mix water with clove oil, and slowly add it to a bucket with the fish. It basically acts as an anesthesia, and if you add alot to the water, it causes the fish to fall asleep painlessly.

[@Queenofthatank]

Wow you got a rare koi for relatively cheap even in those days

[@StoneWolf99801]

@@Queenofthatank What was rare about her? She layed eggs twice, but they were never fertilized as far as I could tell. They all went to waist and I ended up having to remove them from the tank, what weren't eaten by the others or the cat fish that is. She was beautiful, I remember in the early hours of the summer mornings the light came through the back window behind the tank and she would just shine. The shop owner didn't like her because she had the plate like scales on her back instead of the normal scales. But she reminded me of a golden dragon. And her long butterfly fins were stunning. He said if she was any other type and color he would have marked her price up. He was suppose to get red and white butterflies, and instead she was the only butterfly he received, the red & whites all had normal fins.

Thank you for that amazing video. The koi featured are absolutely amazing and It's hard to believe they can grow so large in such a short period of time.

[@madrungarage641]

They throw them in the trash. I’m in my second year of fish keeping and had wondered the same thing. I hoped the culled fry served some kind of purpose like as fertilizer or food for other animals. But no. Just trash.

[@bidav2114]

I've been wondering the same thing...I have a friend and they(family) rearing catfish, they do keep every hatchling unless they die off so im surprised with how these guys just trash their hatchling

[@feralon9570]

​@@bidav2114, Koi is the rich mans game. To keep prices high you keep the demand high, you don't flood the market with great fish, you only sell the best of the best and you kill the rest. They said 30,000ish fry per batch, and your lucky if you see 30 fish in that pond on the last harvest. I found this very sad to watch.

[@UnKnown-bw7bz]

I actually own 3 shintaro tosai, and I’m in the UK so I’m guessing after the first couple of selection they sell the ones they don’t want! Not sure but that’s my guess, still outstanding quality tho, but not quite show fish, for example I have a great Kohaku but it has a tiny red speck on its fin which would be marked down at a show so im guessing that’s why it was sold on.
