When you finally spawn your first

generation of newly-bred Koi fish, it’s a good feeling – now the fun part starts! You must feed them

DON’T FORGET PROPER NUTRITION!

Certain fish won’t look great and won’t be good to sell to

breeders or homeowners and just need to be removed to

ensure you maintain the genetic stock. Because of that,

it’s important to cull out the ones that meet your criteria (and to do it humanely and

quickly).

successfully and create an enjoyable

business.
