- Follow Award Winning Koi Breeder Brady Brandwood as he crosses very high quality Show Koi traits with common American Carp. He shares the results of this first cross, and his reasons for why. This documentary is from his Koi Fixx Video Series a few years ago,... Check back in to this channel for a NEW video on the 2nd Generation cross, and the new results 2 generations in.
I have done this with mollies, using the wild Sailfin Mollies I've caught in ditches, in Mobile, Alabama where I live. I wasn't nearly as dedicated as this koi project, just picked wildly different-looking domestic mollies from pet stores, to see what kind of offspring would result. Some very cool and WEIRD ones, I have to say, ha. The most memorable was a male that grew to extraordinary size, with coloration that looked like neither parents, and a level of aggression in the tank that was less like mollies and more like a betta!
Mo Betta!😂❣️
Omg the gray/blue looking big one at 9:00 is absolutely gorgeous I would love to have a pond of just those. Paint a very colorful bottom to the pond (I’m thinking purple and yellow and orange tie dye) to contrast with them.
😃😀😃 Awesome idea! Thanks for watching Cassidi ✌️✌️✌️
I love the babies that came from this! Those tricolor orange/black/white ones are my favorite koi to see, I think the black just contrast so perfectly with the two light colors.
"I should see something I'm happy with in about 9 more years."
Wow! Talk about playing the long game.
😅 Yeah such a slow process. Thank you for watching. ✌️✌️✌️
6 more years to go ✌️
I find his project very interesting, being koi been inbred like crazy, using wild carp to use to Breed fresh blood into koi is very good idea.
Yes definitely, they need that wild genetics bred back in for health and vigor. Thank you for watching. ✌️✌️✌️
No matter how many times i watch this viideo, these documentary is priceless. Thankyou for sharing!
"I've had this female on my to-do list since 1998."
EDIT: I feel like I should admit that I found the remark hilarious in a truly juvenile way, while at the same time understanding it 100%. I also breed fish (guppies, mollies and bettas) and I know exactly what it is to have a female with such perfect traits, you might put off mating her because you want to pick equally perfect male stock, and get everything set up perfectly for successful offspring-rearing.
Uh oh
That line immediately caught me off guard
I had a giggle, myself 😆
I can't describe why but this feels like if he didn't mention his channel I could totally believe this was an obscure late 90s early 2000s documentary made by a koi enthusiast (in a good way)
Its his voice and the music
This is sooo cool its like if you crossed a warrior female and a royal prince in a fairytale it's amazing to see
Fascinating video! I look forward to future results. The blueish one with black markings and the small one with much red on the head are very beautiful. There were a few such accidental crosses in a stream I used to explore.
Hey, nice Magikarp you have there. Did you get any to evolve into a Gyarados yet?
That’s the true end goal. Create a magikarp capable of reaching level 20
Lmao
Darn, I was gonna make this joke. You said it better anyways though!
Very interesting. You channel is quickly becoming on of my favorites.
The grey /brown guy @9min is soo cool
Interesting cant wait for update. Been forever since you posted a koi video
KoiTime USA Hey I just posted one last week. ✌️✌️✌️
Personally I think the slight orange tint is really pretty.
The grey with black spot is sooo pretty
Ochiba looking koi there too. A very interesting project 👍
Definitely an exercise in patience, something I lack! Ok, waited long enough for the follow up! Lol! This was a very pleasant surprise! Love this experiment!
Kim you do crack me up. 😂✌️✌️
Does cross breeding with pure Carp DNA improve their ability to fend off potential health issues?
Widening the genetic pool is likely to produce stronger offsprings, and to reduce the issues linked to inbreeding
yes
Offcourse, when you inbreed you get recessive diseases. By broadening the DNA pool you will introduce healthy genes which would give rise to healthier specimens.
There is no pure carp DNA, what you mean is "wild type" DNA, which is in alot of cases better but dont have the domestication traits we want.
@@jorkusmalorkus you can extract DNA from cells to have an amount of "pure DNA" also people can isolate certain genes, with can be considered pure dna
There are also genetic traits, while not a genetic disease per se, that are a liability that are difficult (if possible at all) to work around without new genes.
I need to do my studying because all these fish look stunning to me. Especially the 1st gen male. Just a hobbyist getting ready to build my pond.
the special offspring looks like you went back 400 years and got the best go sanke of that time
Dude I have never thought of this kind of cross
Very interesting video with lot of valuble information.Exciting to see the result.
UPDATE re: magoi with utsurimono males. Got about half that look like magoi, the other half that look like cha utsuri, and a small set of outlier yellow fry.
I got a set of small female carp from a farm in CA. The fry are now 16 days old and doing well. The males were all of various utsurimono varieties.
I love koi there so pretty!!
Waiting for the results.
I hope this turns out something interesting.
Always a huge fan of koi🥺🥰🥰🥰💜❤
This youtube channel is hidden gem.
I dont know how i got here?? But im subbing and i want to see the second generations!!!
The first gen male had quite a physique and looked ready to fill out.
I like the moon shapes under the eyes of the second baby fish you showed.
I dont know why I watched this video but it was interesting
I love both koi and common carp
I just love your black female. I know literally nothing about koi but love them as fish. We had some we bought and had in our pond. They were like puppies! SO friendly and sweet! We could pet them and hand feed them. We needed to move and they are thriving in my dear friends pond now. LOVE your videos! Thank you so much!!! We also shared food with them…♥️♥️♥️‼️🤗🤩😘🌺
Desperately waiting for part 2 :)
Beautiful, important, fascinating work!!
Thank you for posting this
Many thanks, and thank you for watching. ✌️✌️✌️
Thank you for this!!!
Fascinating! Looks like a good line for Ochiba in a few of those
JUST WOW this is so impressive!!
Plain carp, especially nearly black ones, look gorgeous when their scales catch the light
SHE IS GORGEOUS!!!!!
i always rewatch this, such intresting man hand fish
i honestly have no idea how i got here, i have no background in fish breeding but this was absolutely fascinating
Nice to meet you. I'm one of the people Matthew was talking about. It seems to be about 6 months old, but I found it the other day and I have a question for you. I would appreciate it if you could tell me how big the largest American Common Carp would be.
Hi Atsumi, One of the largest catches I’ve been able to find record of is a 67lb 10oz 47” long common carp caught in 2011.
@@Bradybrandwood Thank you for your quick reply. Matsunosuke's Sakai, who is most famous for these challenges, and Narita's Chagoi (in pale color), which is now seen by everyone his offspring spread throughout the world, all used a 50+ inch Magoi as a single parent. If you don't do something as radical as that, it will simply lead to the decline of your blood as a Nishikigoi, don't you think?
Well somehow I started caring about a Lobster named Leon, and now I’m watching a video about koi breeding 🤷🏼♀️
Imagine if all wild carp looked like this. that would be so cool
super interesting! thanks for sharing.
I love that grey and black one - so unusual
I watched the Gen2 video first so maybe I missed it. What was used to breed the second generation? Was it another outside koi or cod? Otherwise that's still inbreeding, isn't it?
Wow! Great video!! I don’t have a pond but I have a fish tank actually a bunch of fish tanks that I need to set up soon!
Got damn that's a good carp
They r all beautiful specimen wow nice work
I got a little black koi from petco that i always assumed was a Karasu, any chance it could be some mutt cross similar to this or nah?
Beautiful 👍👍
I think he’s safer in the tank yes I think he’s loving life have a good one Leon
Are you talking about a lobster per chance
@@calebwaller730 I was thinking the exact same, maybe he commented on the wrong video idk
Leon is the lobster’s name, not the narrator’s
So cool, is there a part 2 coming?😁
Hey yes I am working on Part 2 now. ✌️✌️✌️
Alhamdulillah.... from Indonesia
This is one of those rabbit holes I haven't fallen into yet isn't it 🤔
RUclips algorithm strikes in a strange way
The 4:26 Koi is pretty .
I love how this is your passion but you got famous for keeping a grocery store lobster. 😂
Damn this is so entertaining wtf lol
Wow very cool
I just got a male siamese giant carp that I'm growing out. I'm going to breed it with one of my females to see what the offspring will look like. I guess they are compatible.
That’s a good question. I’m not familiar with that fish. ✌️✌️✌️
That might be tricky because Siamese giant carp belong to the genus Catlocarpio rather than Cyprinus, the genus common carp and koi belong to.
i refuse to believe this wasnt made in 2007
Did you get a new tank for leom yet?:)
Can you cross breed a Giant Koi and a Giant Siamese Carp? I think the Siamese Carp is the largest carp.
i am in loveee
Before Leon became king
The Caro has something on his right side..white
irl shiny pokemon, omg
I don't know anything about Koi. I would never have wanted to cross anything with a Carp. But brown fish don't appeal to me.
I respect this. However, it is a very dangerous game to play against several native species across the Americas. Whether your intentions are monetary, biological, godliness or bragging rights. If you ever intended to sell them to any location, there are people with less means or simply less thoughtful intentions towards preserving separate natural biomes. I know you care about this; I’ve only found you via your altruism towards a lobster.
They breed naturally in the wild
Bro its 3am what am i watching
🧐🤯🤩
Karps
maybe you should be looking how to release more of these fish to strengthen their population instead of keeping them as pets
Carp absolutely don't need their population increased. It's even in their name. The "common" carp
Need a better camera the quality is poor 720p looks terrible but an interesting video nonetheless
Just RAY,... This vid was shot in Standard Def in 2005,... and converted to 720p to post on RUclips.
Lol thought it was breeding with crap
Can you breed a human out of this?
if so, make women have 2 vags for double the fun please
Interesting cant wait for update. Been forever since you posted a koi video
