Where can I buy koi in Durban ? Will be my first addition to my pond !
Any suggestions on which type I should go for first & how many koi can i stock in a +- 7000lts pond ...

Hi,

Be careful buying Koi from dealers in Durban at this stage. KHV was detected at one of the dealers selling Koi at the South African National Show, held in Durban in July 2009.

As Koi grows fast, about 7 Koi will be right for your pond.

thank you pieter ...was at the show ...boy ! was i tempted to buy at the show ...

If you tell me what your requirements are, I can make up a selection and furnish you with a quote for Japanese imports delivered to Durban airport.

Will be adding much more within the next week.

tanx paul ...will email you soon.

I think Ahmed made good choices to start off. What do you think?

I flew the following to Durban yesterday.

Ginrin Goshiki bred by Hiroi



Doitsu Showa also bred by Hiroi



And a Sakai Matsunosuke bloodline Sanke, Jumbo bloodline Yamabuki bred by Hirasawa and a very clean Hariwake.

Re-route that flight via Bloem. I will make sure the flight to Durban will be delayed. Good looking Koi

tanx paul !
