Breeding Koi: Knowing Your Koi's Past And Future
The Koi (or "Nishikigoi" in Japan) are becoming quite popular in the United States for breeding. But only a few know where and how they came to be. The first Koi were produced by breeding the Asian carp and the German carp. After years of careful selective breeding, different color mutations started showing up. In the year 1805, the earliest patterns in color were recorded. To this day, thousands of color variations and combinations can be seen.
Popular colors include white, yellow, black, silver, orange, blue, red and green. There are endless possibilities of combination of patterns. Each Koi have their own name, and these names are based on their color and pattern. The favorite types may differ, which depends on the location that they're in.
These fish are being raised for sale in a lot of countries, like Singapore, Israel, Japan and in warmer states in the U.S.. The fish can be bought at many local pet stores. If they don't have the stock readily available, they can be ordered. By ordering, the advantage of this is that the buyer will have more options, since they don't have to pick from the stock on hand. The disadvantage of this is that the buyer won't be able to pick the specific Koi that they want to have.
Not like most of the other fish, they will continually grow until they'll reach the maximum size of their breed (no matter where they're being placed in). The young are 3 inches long, while the largest can reach up to 3 feet or even more! Their most common size is around 2 feet long. As for their age, they have been known to live up to 30 years old (under the right conditions), the oldest of which have lived up to 233 years!
The Koi are omnivorous, as they feed on meat and plants alike. And this results in the adaptability of their diet. They will eat almost anything that you feed them, and it doesn't matter if its good for them or not. The owner should be the ones to control what and how much they eat, because they are incapable of judging what's right or wrong for their diet, and the amounts that they should be taking on a daily basis as well. The healthiest treats for them are the natural food, like earthworms and tadpoles, and food like bread, lettuce, fruit and veggies.
Owners should take necessary precautions when feeding them with beans, corns and grapes, as they contain outer casing, which can't be properly digested by the fish if eaten by them. The outer casings should be removed completely before feeding those to them.
The Koi are non-aggressive types of fish, and they are able to mingle with other fish like the comet and goldfish. As they are fast eaters, the Koi will eat any fish that they will find smaller, and this could be a problem! They don't have teeth, which is why it's quite okay for them to be feed through the hand (which can be a great past time for their owners too)!). For this, breeding is truly a fun hobby for fish lovers out there!
