Amazing place again. Beautiful koi. What I loved the most throughout all the videos of Japan is the mixture of info, history and your personal experience there and over time. Fabulous.
How awesome are those koi just swimming around and you just walk in , some truly awesome creatures! When you think each farm cannot beat the previous the quality of koi gets better.
Amazing how you can just walk in these places at your leisure. Even my bio filter pit has a padlock, and the pond gets metal covers and padlocked when I go away.
Hi Tim - wasn’t the breeder/dealer Mia Ishi one of the first to have a koi house for viewing and purchasing koi? I totally agree how nice the Mano family are and how helpful they are to anyone who visits. I was lucky enough to help them harvest a pond in 2018. Mano senior is incredible at lifting those huge units
So just wondering if butterfly koi are bread much in Japan. Don’t recall seeing any butterfly’s from the videos I’ve watched. I’ve had a female in my pond since 2005. Thanks
Awesome Koi at that Farm.
I like the Yamabuki and the Agasi, they are gorgeous.
Thankyou very much for sharing Tim.
Take care Sir. 👍😊❤️

Omg they are monsters.. such gorgeous koi ... Great video
The quality of those fish was off the charts! The gosanke 😍 thanks again Tim for all the knowledge and inspiration!
Beautiful koi house! Big fish cruising at the right pace. Spot on. Regards Stephen.
Beautiful Yamabukis of course but the gosankes are seriously impressive and my fav is their bekkos!

I think the retail faculty came later as they sold their land for the bullet train and built it
I’ve got to ask Tim, have you ever fallen into one of the indoor ponds in Japan? This one looked safe, but some other’s are on the sketchy side! 😂
Not yet…

2 farms really. Suda and Yamasan
@@TimWaddington cool. Thanks.
Have you ever come accross an awkward japanease breeder, they all seem placid very friendly and caring
I’ve come across breeders who don’t want to sell you koi a few times. That’s about it
Any possibility of buying online, and having Koi shipped to South Africa?
We cannot ship to SA anymore unfortunately
