Dear valued members,

Greetings! This is the Superbowl weekend. I am sure many of you are very excited. I remember my first experience of Superbowl week. It was about 10 years ago when I was in New York as a college student. All of my friends were just talking about Superbowl and I was completly lost about what was happening. It took me a while to figure out that it was about American football, not super sized bowl...

After enjoying Superbowl, our auction will close. So, please do not forget to check it on line. Superbowl and Koi Auction, it is such a wonderful Sunday night, isn't it!

Well, this year, in order to provide you more Koi with the even more strict standard of health check, we are building three more greenhouses. The new green house will have more capacity to hold Koi and more importantly to conduct the strict quarantine procedure.

We strive to be the best source of your Koi needs and look forward to serving you again throughout this year.

Kokugyo -Bible for Koi lovers-	Personally Autographed by Author	Autograph & Company's Seal

Kokugyo

Mr. Galen Hansen, M.D. (Certified Judge of Associated Koi Clubs of America) says in KOI USA "all of the AKCA judges highly recommend that you purchase Mr. Kodama's new book, Kokugyo. We feel this is a must have book that any koi lover can not do without. Mr. Kodama is so knowledgeable, enlightening all of us to new information and easy to understand approaches to understanding Koi." (KOI USA Vol.27) This is a bible for all the Koi lovers.

Early 2004, we received beautiful autographed papers from him. On the high quality paper, his actual calligraphic signature with his company's seal stands out. This will make your book more valuable and original.

If you purchase Kokugyo book now, we will attach this limited edition of Kodama's signature. Unfortunately, we have only 10 from Japan. So please order NOW.

A Happy New Year!
New year greetings from Japan for all U.S. Nishikigoi hobbyists.

Thank you.

Deep snow in Niigata

Almost all Koi we deliver to you are from Niigata in Japan.
Once we purchase Koi there, we first move them to our head office in Aichi prefecture of Japan. Stocking them in various sized 62 ponds from 10000 up to 81000 gallons, we carefully quarantine them.

Mr. Takayama is in charge of health and shipment of Koi to US. He has been working with Koi for more than 10 years.
With all the experience, knowledge and technology, we make sure of Koi health until we ship them to US.

The head office members

Our goal in the head office is to maintain the top condition of Koi health. In order for that, we, as a team, work to manage water condition, disease control and feeding management.
We do our best this year so that beautiful Japanese Koi reach American Koi hobbyists.

News

New Quarantine Greenhouse
Unfortunately, KHV was found in Japan last fall. Though we already quarantine Koi from Japan with a strict protocol including PCR test on every single shipment, I realized I need better and larger facility to conduct more strict quarantine procedures to insure beautiful and healthy Japanese Koi for you.
The first greenhouse is almost done. We plan to build 2 more by Spring.
