World class Koi unboxing Behind the scenes access & chat with Tim Waddington

Follow a shipment of stunning, high quality Koi as they arrive in the UK from Japan on 2nd February 2022. We go behind the scenes to film the unboxing and transfer to their temporary homes at Quality NIshikigoi in Warrington. Hear from Tim Waddington as he talks us through the procedures the fish will undergo as they transition from Japanese breeders to UK dealer ponds.
As well as 11 very high quality large koi to nearly 90cm we witness the arrival of many many hundreds of smaller koi from Marusei, Shintaro and Aoki. Tosai and Nisai, all with very bright futures ahead of them and all of which will be available for sale in the coming months.
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to witness something we would hobbyists never normally see.

    Great video Daz. Really informative. Just shows that the best Koi come from Japan. I've seen a lot of fish from places like Poland & Israel but they lack the quality of these fish. Think I need to get myself up to Warrington when the warmer weather arrives. Glad to see you looking so well mate.

    Hi Anthony, its really a case of the lower the better but yes, 0.2 or 0.3 mg/l is a good target to aim for that shouldn't give you weed problems 👍👍

    Need to pick your brains cany you run a shower with the correct flow with a nexus because you have to have the flow rate low on the nexus.

  • @DazzleKoi

    @DazzleKoi

    2 жыл бұрын

    Hi Joh, realistically your shower will be very limited running at nexus flows. Its not impossible, but its far from ideal. Its the same with my shower running after a pod. I had to build a shower to be optimised for the lower flow as a full width shower would simply not work. Best thing is a separate pump ideally. 3000 gallons an hour minimum for a full width shower with BHM or similar ceramic media.
