AJYKS Grand Champion Sakai Kohaku

Sakai of Hiroshima took top honors once again at this years All Japan Young Koi Show winning Grand Champion with this very impressive Kohaku.

Just over 60 centimeters this Kohaku displays massive body conformation that is strong from her head through the torso, right into the thick tail tube and sharp Odome.  A very powerful and unique Nidan pattern fits the body of this Kohaku perfectly.

Congratulations to Sakai of Hiroshima (Breeder), Kiki Sutarki (Samurai Koi Center), Hernando Yuwono (Owner) and Narita Koi Farm on this great achievement!

Pan Intercorp is proud to host an unprecedented Grow-out Competition featuring World Class Gosanke bred by Sakai of Hiroshima. The venue for this Grow-out will be in the actual Sakai mud ponds at their world-famous facility in Hiroshima Japan.

This Growout features Certified Jumbo Tosai Kohaku from Sakai’s world famous Rose bloodline, Certified Jumbo Tosai Sanke from Sakai’s unparalleled Sanke bloodlines, and Certified Jumbo Tosai Showa from Sakai’s exciting Black Hawk bloodlines.

Jumbo Tosai participating in this Competition have been Guaranteed Female*.  All will be released into the mud ponds in Hiroshima in mid April, and will emerge from this intensive growth environment in the fall of 2016.

All participants are invited to visit Sakai Fish Farms in Hiroshima Japan in late November, when the contestants will be entered into an exhibition hosted by Sakai.  Each of the grow-out koi will be judged by SFF President Kentaro Sakai, and awards will be presented.

1-800-827-5819 or email pan@koi.com

*Guaranteed Female: Guaranteed female means that, at the time of selection, the koi has been carefully inspected by the breeder and has been determined to be female.

When the same koi is harvested in the fall, it will again be carefully inspected to confirm it’s femininity. In the unlikely event that the koi should turn out to be a male at this point, it will be replaced with a female sibling of similar quality as selected by the breeder. This is the definition of ” Guaranteed Female”.

Venue:

Please note that this grow-out competition is taking place in Japan at the Sakai Fish Farm facility in Hiroshima.

Participation:

Participants may make their selection from Jumbo Tosai that will be offered at Sakai’s upcoming Spring Auction.  Jumbo Tosai available at this auction will be photographed and posted online in the weeks preceding the auction.
