Ki Utsrui was almost extinct!
Ki Utsuri are created by crossbreeding Magoi (black koi) and Ki Bekko.“Ki” means yellow in Japanese and “Utsuri” means transparent in the koi world.
Therefore, Ki Utsuri means that the yellow color is seen through in the black color.In the olden days Ki Utsuri were very rare and valuable.
About 130 years ago, the black Koi that had one yellow scale was exchanged for a 130 lb. bag of rice. During those times, one yellow scale was worth $200. If a black Koi had 5 yellow scales, then that Koi would be worth $1000. (In the olden days, the value of the money was described by the amount of rice).
Eventually, Hi Utsuri was created from Ki Utsuri, and the Hi Utsuri variety took over in popularity. This caused the breeders to stop producing Ki Utsuri. Eventually, there were no Ki Utsuri breeders remaining.
Ki Utsuri nearly became extinct until 6 years ago. Mamoru Kodama went to visit the breeders at Maruyo and Otsuka Koi farm hoping to have the beautiful Ki Utsuri revived.
Maruyo and Otsuka Koi Farm both agreed with Mr. Kodama and became Ki Utsuri breeders. They were able to locate the parent Ki Utsuri, and have been producing them ever since.

Try and guess which of the three Ki Utsuri koi fish was most expensive?

WHY THESE TUBS COULD SAVE YOU THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS!
When you use these tubs to quarantine ALL NEW KOI FISH before introducing to your pond or other koi fish could save your entire population from infection. The threat of bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic infections is real with koi fish herpes virus (KHV) more widespread than ever. First step is to only buy from a koi fish farm you can trust. Japanese Farms have been role models for other fish farmers on everything to do RIGHT and have kept the virus out. Standards that took hundreds of years to develop. Finding koi farms that mimic those safe farming practices, and buying from them helps prevent the further spread of disease.
ALWAYS QUARANTINE YOUR KOI FISH BEFORE PUTTING IN POND.
FOR BEST RESULTS AND TO HELP YOUR KOI FISH TRANSITION TO A NEW POND ENVIRONMENT INCLUDE TERRAPOND IONIC MINERALS.

FOR BEST RESULTS AND TO HELP YOUR KOI FISH TRANSITION TO A NEW POND ENVIRONMENT INCLUDE TERRAPOND IONIC MINERALS.

TERRAPOND creates the perfect healing and nourishing environment for your koi fish right after they arrive and whenever you see any illness display in pond fish, remove them and quarantine with Terrapond strong in the water replicating their natural koi mud pond environment. If you start a quarantine with TerraPond added to the water as quickly as possible, you can avoid contaminating other fish, having to use stronger prescription strength meds, or to risk the development of antibiotic resistance bacteria in your pond.
Always start with Terrapond which has antibacterial, antiviral, antiparasitic, and antifungal properties, the strong IONIC negative charge bonds to positively charged invaders that can kill and create a bond that leads to the death of the organism. The minerals cut off all access to nourishment and the organism cannot survive without killing healthy cells in the process. Introducing any antibiotics to a water system, kills good and bad organisms that established a balanced and healthy environment.
Keep your water and precious koi fish healthy with access to what they need, 57 IONIC minerals that come from a time 15 million y/o, one micron in size from the force of the Colorado River, and perfect for absorbing from the outside in and immediately bonding with positively charged invaders as like the clay, healthy cells, and good microorganisms are NEGATIVE (-) where the bad invaders or toxic chemicals/heavy metals are POSITIVE (+).
By adding TerraPond once a month to your pond it will be as clear as Lake Tahoe that runs over a different deposit of this special "CALCIUM MONTMORILLONITE" CLAY. The ions bond to all the bad stuff, make it heavy, and it sinks to the bottom. It also neutralizes TOXINS/impurities in the water so they can no larger bring harm and weaken fish immune systems.
TerraPond strengthens immune systems in the same way koi fish absorb highly needed mineral nutrition from mud. That mud may now be contaminated and the immune system so compromised that to gain back health will require a concentrated nutrition source that can be easily given and absorbed by the fish.
Once submerged into a tub of water mixed with TerraPond, the one micron sized IONIC molecules with the strong negative charge will immediately bond with the positively charged cells in the wound/infection. It is amazing how they will stay in place where needed most. Not only will the fish heal faster, but will receive pure nutrition that can be used immediately to fight and make new tissue since also high in silica which is the foundation for skin,
Koi fish can look healthy, but still be infected. They may just be getting ready to display symptoms and physical sores. Don't EVER ASSUME A NEW FISH IS HEALTHY. It will save lots of money in the long run. A must have if working with expensive koi.

LISTEN TO AN INTERVIEW WITH TERRAPOND OWNER ABOUT WHAT TERRAPOND AND MINERALS CAN DO
Go to our interview with TerraPond mineral mine owner Ray Kong and find out what koi pond owners tell him. The power of the minerals from this special mine and amazing. |
Koi thrive in mud ponds. They also protect koi fish from disease since their immune systems stay strong and clay kills bad invaders while neutralizing toxins. |
