The new Koi arrived in perfect condition around midnight. They settled into their new ponds overnight and looked great this morning.
However they now needed to be inspected. Anchor worm can be a problem when importing new koi from Japan. Some breeders remove them and some breeders leave them for us! There were a few but nothing we couldn’t manage, we had to put the Koi under anaesthetic and remove them. Only a few of the Koi we looked at had them. A couple of Koi had a few split fins which we treated. The water was at 16C this morning and will be ramped up to 24C and kept there for a good 10 days before I drop it again. Cefas will carry out their inspection of the Koi next week too.
Extremely happy with the Koi, they look superb! Will be on the website ASAP!
