As we had so many Koi growing at Koi No Yohei it was the only place for us to be this Harvest. Deron was invited to assist with the Sansai Koi Harvest in which Select Nishikigoi had several Koi, including two Koi that were hopfully bound for the All Japan Koi Show in January. The two Koi were a stunning Yamabuki Ogon that went into the mud pond at 50cm and a Tancho Sanke of 60cm.
The Yamabuki as you can see (left) grew tremendously well and now measures 72cm!
The Tancho Sanke also grew very well and now also measures72cm!
There were many show winning Koi in the pond and many Japanese hobbyists witnessed the event, eagerly awaiting for their Koi to be pulled from the mud.
Below is a selection of the Sansai Harvest, more pictures will be on a new page once we get time to publish them online.

The Japanese water additive Top Ace EXV is now back in stock. We introduced this product to the UK earlier this year and had 100% positive feedback from everyone that used it, infact it was so successful we ran out in less than four weeks. It was recommended to us by several Japanese hobbyists and is the combination of 98 different ingredients that put everything back into the pond water that filtration etc takes out, plus adding other essential trace elements. Every Japanese hobbyist uses water additives and are essential to maintaining and improving quality Koi. We apologise to everyone that has waited so long for its arrival but sea freight from Japan is a very slow process. If you require any further information please give us a call.
