Holland Koi Show - Pond bottom drain and Cocoon



Returned late this afternoon and posted more pictures of the Koi Show on main page of blog. This year, the weather was fine throughout the 3 days, unlike previous years where occasional light rain fell. The crowd could easily be more than 30,000 and must be the biggest koi show on earth!

Visited several big distributors for koi and pond accessories in Holland and Germany. Along with the desire of some new pond owners, we have brought in bottom drains with oxygen diffuser. Please refer to the above picture.

Over the years, many koi hobbyists in Europe are feeding their koi with cocoons (picture at top) which is a very affordable koi food supplements. This food is very high in protein - close to 60% and koi on such diet grow very fast. It is also very well-liked by koi and so it is a kind of titbits for koi like chocolates to children. We plan to bring in cocoon for our customers to feed their koi too!
