AUTUMN HARVEST Selection of Taniguchi Gosanke and Goshiki Koi

It's a busy time of year here at Koi Wholesale as we prepare for the 2021 Autumn Harvest. In this video, Koi Wholesale Managing Director, Ricky Stoddart, gets hands-on with a selection of Gosanke and Goshiki Koi from one of his favourite breeders - Taniguchi Koi Farm.
These Koi were shipped from Japan, into Koi Wholesale on 9 April 2021, and since then have progressed through a number of previous selection processes to get to this point. During this selection Ricky identifies which Koi will be kept to grow on further at Koi Wholesale, and which will be sold to Koi dealers across the UK, and then onwards to Koi hobbyists. He explains the quality of the Koi - from the bone structure, skin quality, and pattern, right through to the potential future development of the fish.
Over the coming weeks we'll be looking in detail at a mix of other varieties as we work through the selection process for a number of our other ponds. Make sure you subscribe to our UA-cam channel - if you're a keen Koi hobbyist you really don't miss any of our upcoming videos!

[@KoiWholesale]

Nice work!

[@TelfordKoiPond]

Absolutely superb🏆🏅🥇. Only wish I could come and buy some🙁. I see quality like too infrequently, are you able to say what dealers you sell to because I want to go and camp outside their door👍😊. So looking forward to seeing how the ones you selected to grow on, develop. Thank you for sharing, keep up the good work👍🈲🐟😊

[@sony436]

same here pal wish we could come and buy some cut the middle man out as you would pay double the price at dealers don't get me wrong dealers got make a living just make hard for work class like us to buy high end fish lol

[@toonvangampelaere1409]

@@sony436 i'm very lucky in that aspect, i'm 16 so over the summer I worked at a koi dealer in Belgium and I can tell him what i'm looking for and he buy's them from the koi farms for me and I get a big discount.

[@KoiWholesale]

Thanks for the comment, feel free to get in touch and I can point you in the direction of some dealers who could assist you. My email is [e-mail]

[@KoiWholesale]

@@sony436 without the dealers there is no Koi Wholesale and no koi industry. They get access to the prices they do because of the quantity that they buy and I guarantee you’ll be getting the best deals buying from them. I’m happy to put you in touch with some people if you wish.

[@markbrady7462]

[@KoiWholesale]

I bring them back from Japan with me. Although Norfine nets do produce a range.
