Many customers want black koi. During my recent Japan trip, breeders there are not willing to sell black koi for two reasons. (1) Black koi are not true Nishigikoi as they are more for consumption (2) They are generally not well taken care of, as such they are highly likely a carrier of viruses. With the current fear of KHV (deadly virus that can wipe out all your koi collection within days) it is of upmost important not to have such black koi imported. Not wise to take such high risk!
Customers are advised to consider Bekko or Shiro utsuri instead. These koi have both black and white colors and are good substitute.
