Genki Koi’s relationship with Koda Koi Farm spans three generations, built through long-standing friendship, trust, and a shared respect for Nishikigoi. This history gives us a deeper understanding of Koda’s bloodlines, breeding philosophy, and quality standards, allowing us to select koi that reflect the health, authenticity, and refinement our customers expect.
Located in the mountainous Kawaguchi region near Nagaoka City, Niigata, Koda is a respected four-generation koi farm now led by breeder Masato Hoshino. Known for patient breeding and long-term refinement, the farm uses Niigata’s natural mountain water and seasonal mud ponds to develop strong bodies, healthy skin, and lasting presence.
Koda is especially admired for its slow-growth philosophy. Rather than rushing early color, the farm focuses first on foundation—broad shoulders, strong tail joints, balanced frames, and skin quality. This gives Koda koi excellent potential to become more powerful and refined as they mature.
The farm is particularly known for Goshiki, Ginrin Goshiki, and Ginrin Showa, prized for rich color, strong body quality, and brilliant scale shine.
