They grew significantly. They were about 6 inches when we got them. They were at least double in size when the temps started dropping. Temps are dropping and water is freezing now, they seem to have gone dormant.

I feed Saki Hikari growth + Saki Hikari color food. My tosai grows between 3-10cm per month in summer depending on its genetics. For color development, I was told saki deep red and Odakan is the best.

99.999999999% has one reason: pond way to small to keep one koi and have 25.

Great video. Excellent advice. I use Hikari

Great information

I have a giant avocado tree and have been cutting up avocados. The Koi love them. They grew noticeably this summer. I have been lucky and have been able to give them 3- 6 per day. They are the giant florida avocados. Like 2 pounds each. In the spring I have mangoes they love them too. I obviously give them koi food too.

Yvo - I’m amazed that this vlog never mentioned the water parameters for Ammonia, nitrite and nitrate....excess levels of all 3 will affect the koi wanting to feed. This is primarily linked to either poor filtration in a pond or more usually, overstocking. As you have seen, Japanese mudponds have very few koi for their size.

Hello Geoff, There are maybe 20 different reasons I could had mentoined in the video. But I think those subjects need a video on there own. I get your point but you need to understand that most of the community even never check there water values. So we need to start at a certain level of information. To much information and people will loose the focus. Learing is step by step, even for me ;)

I always buy Northfin Koi Supreme. Northfin makes the best fish food on the market in my opinion. Its certified organic, uses whole ingredients, only con is that it has a slightly shorter shelf life because it has no preservatives. Easily alleviated by keeping it refrigerated or frozen after opening.

I’m wanting a koi pond but don’t have space for anything huge. Roughly 2m x 2m and 1m high would this be better to just stick with gold fish? Or could I eventually upgrade in a few years

I feed my Koi Tetra Koi Vibrance...is that good for them?

Mine get Hikari and all the birds they can catch, which is alot lol, they love em. I feed a variety of foods ,they grow like crazy. I am going to agree oxygen and exercise is a must for rapid growth in smaller ponds

Hello Chad, Thanks you so much for these kind words.

The list is long between snacks, and various foods. Hikari; staple, gold, silkworm selects, gold baby, and micro wafers for the pleco. Then there are a various assortment of shrimp, beetles, mealworms, etc for snacks. I also recently added crystal clear rapid growth formula in a small grade. I have a variety of size fish in my pond from three inches up so I try to provide a variety in food size and type. When temps drop I will begin changing their diet. I live in SW Florida so that won't be for awhile though. Their morning feeding is a variety of staple, gold, silkworm, and gold baby. Not all of them, a couple at a time. Afternoon same but I add in snacks. Evening feedings are like the morning again. I am the proud owner of my own vacuum and I've made a special filter so when I vacuum the water is cleaned before it goes back into the pond. I keep the pond pretty clean and the aerator intake just got a nice toothbrush scrub. I do use natural bacteria packets to help keep things down bottom percolating properly. And from time to time a clay based algae treatment when things begin getting gunked up. How am I doing?🤔

I loved and subbed

what do they inject ?? PG or HCG or SGNRH ?? please let me know

I have be told depth can influence growth as well. Feeding sinking food to have them go up and down to increase muscle size what are you options on this? Loving your videos thanks.

@TheKoiPartner

5 жыл бұрын

Hello Steven, thats a pretty good one! Depth is also important at least 1,80m. I feed only during winter time sinking koi food when it is winter time and the Koi are on the bottom of the pond (less active). Normaly I give them floating Koi pallets, I tell you why. For me when the Koi are at the surface of the water I am able to inspect them when they are eating. Very important to check if the Koi are all healthy.

i use hikari mainly, with some treats of shrimp, nice video

BEAUTIFUL koi...wish I had some

I use medi carp all the time , and treat with cooked mussels

I'm currently using Hikari Staple mixed with Hikari Gold, tho I need to check on the water more often can we use any supplements to for ph level and etc.?

I need to know is he now too big for my pond which is only 3 feet deep then 6 feet x 6 feet width.breadth. My koi has been in this pond for 10 years & has grown quite large but is thriving & has survived when the pond was diseased where some other fish died. Thanks for any advice.

So I have some various Koi in my Pond. Should I ever expect them to breed? What allows and encourages breeding?

Henry Fung In Spring I feed 2-3 times a day and in mid summer I feed 4-5 times a day and feed as much that can be eaten within 10 minutes. In fall I then feed 2-3 a day. I also hand feed in addition 1-2 times a day. So the koi get 5-7 feedings a day depending on the time of year.

Hikari is good! Carp likes everything that is green and lives :P

I feed my koi the JDP japanese koi high protein and the supreme colour feed . Is Hikari Economy better than that?

there are also male koi that grow long and big. they are mostly underrated and get not the support like female koi. a other fact is that especially tosai are often need high proteine, because they grow so fast like you said. the bobycells are based on proteine, so lentgh und volumina depend derictly on the income of proteine. you said that they need space to grow. yeah thats true. big koi need more space. but that is not the main fact. koi submit neurostransmitters in their enviroment. so they can define how large their habitat is. so in fact in our home ponds, we need much freshwater to reduce the amount of neurotransmitters so that the koi think their living place is bigger than it is. and in combination with the other points you mentioned the koi can work on their growingpotential.

I have a friend who keeps some fry in a tank during the autumn and winter months. The problem is that we have noticed that one of them is barely growing at all. This is concerning since several months have passed and its size has barely increased. Is there a way to make it grow normally or is it too late by now?

Apart from high quality pellet food what other food can be used to grow koi like e.g shrimps? Mealworms ?

i need to ask a question that is related i belive with the topic. how can you tell the age of a koi when you buy it from a store? he can maybe be there for 2 years and be 12cm. so if i take that fish he will never be big.... you go the point of my question.... thank you

I agree that typically female koi will be bigger in length and frame to support the weight of carrying eggs. However, just look at some of the very high end make koi at the 2019 AJKS many of them were huge and their bodies were just like a female...

Sadly I only get to enjoy larger fish via youtube one day I hope to have a small koi/goldfish pond!
