Have a look at this amazing inside outside koi pond, we have a chat with its owner about the build, filtration and its residents. The pond visit series is something I’ve been wanting to do for ages and I’m now finally getting the time. One of the best parts is finding out peoples thoughts for doing things, what does and doesn’t work for them and generally having a good chat about koi. This feature doesn’t work without you guys as i still need ponds to visit, although i have got some belters lined up. So if you’re interested in taking part please send an email to FTAO Clayton sales@springbankkoi.com Don’t forget to check out the website https://www.springbankkoi.com Don’t forget to subscribe https://bit.ly/2AwfOD2

Yuko of Japan Outpost (http://www.japanoutpost.org.uk) visited a Nishikigoi dealer in Warrington, who is the biggest importer of Nishikigoi from Japan in the UK.

Do you know what nishikigoi are? They are Japanese, brightly coloured carp, often seen in traditional Japanese gardens. Keeping koi carp is an increasingly popular hobby. There are a small number of specialist koi dealers who import koi from Japan. Yuko Howes of Japan Outpost (www.japanoutpost.org.uk) visits UKnishikigoi in St. Helens, to learn more!
