Visited Yamamatsu Koi Farm, Toshiyuki Sakai and home of Matsunosuke sanke. I had many laugh with Sakai and was treated to select his best available for sale jumbo tosai sanke. The brothers seined a pond of 500 sanke and I got to handselect 25 pcs from them. Incredable shiro ground and sumi quality, pictures doesn't do them just.
Next stop was Hoshikin Koi Farm. Katsuyuki and his staff seined a pond of 70 13"-17" jumbo tosai tategpo kohaku at just 11 months old. These were pricey so I bought only 6 kohaku guaranteed female. 4 are coming home 2 growing out at their farm. Also bought 2 nice tancho kohaku from them LINK |

Koi of the Month
|
 
19" Ginrin Showa
Koda, 3 yr. old / Male
$1200
Koi of this month is a beautiful Ginrin Showa traditionally known as Daiya Showa. This tategoi sansai were bred by Hoshino family of Koda Koi Farm in Kawaguchi Niigata. Its size may be small by today's standard but Mr. Koda believe in raising koi naturally so this is his normal size sansai. Though this farm is still unknown by most in the west, they breed very high quality Kujaku and Ginrin Showa by Japanese standard. |
