is a family owned and operated fish farm in Port Allen, LA.  Our primary focus is on the production of koi and goldfish for the water gardening and koi-keeping hobbies.  We also sell plecostomus (algae eaters) and we are a dealer for certain pond related equipment, such as beadfilters, pumps, and ultraviolet lights.
 Our fish are available in a variety of qualities and sizes. 

Koi are available in a standard grade or select grade, and also standard fin and long fin (butterfly).  Standard grade fish are those which may or may not fit into one of the recognized varieties, but will provide nice color for a pond.  Select grade fish are those which typically fit into one of the recognized varieties (kohaku, showa, sanke, etc.) or they can be fish that are very unusual but do not necessarily fit into one of the recognized varieties.  Select grade fish can range from a reasonable example of the variety to show quality fish. 

Goldfish are available in standard varieties, fancy varieties, and exotic varieties.  Standard varieties are those that are more common, such as red fantails (ryukins), comets, and red orandas.  Fancy varieties are more distinctive varieties, such as red and white orandas, bubble-eyes, and telescope-eyes.  Exotic varieties are those that are more unusual and difficult to breed, such as blue orandas, chocolate orandas, and panda orandas.

Plecostomus are available only in a standard variety for the purpose of helping keep ponds clear of excessive attached algae.  Plecostomus are sold by the inch and are typically available from 6 inches to 20 inches.

Koi History  1 of 3 versions
A brief look into the origins of Koi Koi are bred all over the world, and are considered the most popular freshwater ornamental pond fish. The Koi, known as Nishikigoi, is the mascot of Japan as well as the representative of its culture. "Nishiki" is Japanese for a very colorful piece of cloth. "Goi", or Koi, is Japanese for carp. As the hobby became more and more popular around the world, people referred to them simply as Koi.

Contrary to popular belief, Koi did not originate in Japan, but from parts of Eastern Asia and China. They were introduced nearly 2,500 years ago in their black form and were known as Magoi (black koi). Known to be an excellent source of nutrition, they were kept in the rice paddies to provide food during the winter. Some were brought nearer to the homes and kept in their own ponds making them easier to farm, and possibly as a form of decoration.
 

Nearly 700 years later in the Niigata region, color variations of the fish began to appear. These red mutations were separated from the Magoi and selectively bred together, creating new and beautiful color varieties.

The next reference to the colored carp came around 1800 with solid red, white and yellow fish being selectively bred. These were the only varieties of Koi until nearly 1830, when selective crossings of red and white fish produced the first Kohaku. More varieties followed including the Asagi and Higoi up until the late 1800's when many of the modern varieties became recognized.
 
4 At about the same time, the Leather Carp was introduced from Germany (eventually called Doitsu, meaning German). This is an almost completely scaleless carp, with skin resembling smooth leather. A cross between the Doitsu and the Asagi produced the Shusui.
 It was not until 1914 that the colored carp were seen outside of Niigata when a batch were sent to the Great Tokyo Exhibition, and some of these were made a gift to the Emperor Taisho's son. During the 1920's the Kohaku and Sanke became established, followed in the 1930's by the Shiro, Bekko, and Showa.

The Koi hobby today boasts over 100 amazing color varieties. Every Koi is unique, and the patterns that are seen on a specific Koi can never be exactly repeated. The judging of Koi at exhibitions has become a refined art, which requires many years of understanding the relationship between color, pattern, size and shape, presentation, and a number of other key traits. Collecting Koi has become a hobby enjoyed by millions of enthusiasts around the world.

Koi History  2 of 3 versions

(About the Fish)

Koi are descendants of the common carp which were originally native to Eastern Europe and Persia. Carp were later introduced to Europe, North America, South America, Asia and other areas of the world as a commodity in trade or food.

The word "Koi" was first used about 2,500 years ago in China. Confucius' son, born in 533 B.C., was presented a fish by King Shoko of Ro. The fish were used as the main subject in Chinese artwork and carvings and some Chinese rulers kept carp in captivity for their viewing pleasure. While there may have been natural mutations of carp which featured patches of colour on them in China, the Japanese are generally recognized as the creators of Nishikigoi (Living Jewels).

The Japanese were the first to take the naturally occurring mutations and develop them further. Japanese rice farmers first kept them as food fish but somewhere between the 1820s and 1830s, they began to breed some of the carp for their aesthetic appeal. The farmers kept the colourful carp as pets for themselves. As the farmers developed different colour types of Koi, interest in Koi spread throughout the local area and then throughout Japan. National interest for Koi in Japan increased tremendously when Emperor Hirohito was presented Koi for the Imperial Palace moat in 1914.

Most people involved in the hobby consider the Niigata area in Japan as the birthplace from which the Nishikigoi sprang. More specifically, areas in and around Ojiya City in Niigata are regarded as the home of Nishikigoi. Today there are more than 100 different colour types and sub-types of Koi. Wild carp were called "Koi" in Japan, but the term was also used to describe coloured carp.

The name Nishikigoi was given to these "coloured Koi carp" during World War-II. Today coloured carp are simply called Koi and the term has evolved into the common name for them worldwide. The term Nishikigoi is used as a formal name. Nishikigoi is used to describe them in written text or describing the fish formally to Japanese people who do not have working knowledge of the fish. Many people in Japan recognize the term Nishikigoi but may not be familiar with the term Koi
