Nishikigoi.com Auction Koi just a few months later…

Ever wonder how some of the koi won on www.Nishikigoi.com turn out?

Check out this video submitted to us by an auction winner who purchased these koi just a few months ago. In a very short period of time these koi have grown several inches and put on a ton of weight… a testament to the koi husbandry skills of the customer and the quality of the koi put up for auction on www.Nishikigoi.com!

The photos below are how the koi looked the day that they were auctioned and the video shows how they look today. Enjoy!

Washington Koi Show 2011 Grand Champion

Congratulations to Chris Charbonneau for winning Grand Champion at the 20th annual Washington Koi & Watergarden Society Koi Show! The competition was fierce in all size categories this year, with over 150 koi entered in the show. This Champion Taisho Sanke from Sakai of Hiroshima was purchased in 2006 as a Sakai Jumbo Tosai from Pan Intercorp. Truly a testament to both bloodlines and her Koi keeping abilities, Chris was able to raise this Sanke from a 13 inch Tosai to the 30 inch Grand Champion it is today. Excellent job Chris!
