Quality Japanese koi
by the box.
Most Japanese koi arrives in the States ungraded — sorted by price, not quality. We do the opposite: higher-grade fish, chosen one at a time, for buyers who would rather pay for quality than gamble on it. It costs more. It is also exactly what the trade has been asking for. Serious Japanese koi, by the box.
