Why do Koi grow so fast in a mud pound? (Natural pond) + Examples

Last October I made a number of videos about jumbo Koi who came from the mudpond. In this episode I explain why Koi grow so fast in a mud pound. I show you images of Koi breeders how they do this in Japan.

Before a Koi can reach a certain size they stay in the mud pond for some seasons. Let start at the beginning.

In the summer the temperatures in Niigata rise high, while in winter huge amounts of snow fall. An ideal combination for growing Koi. I explain why:

It is now mid February and the breeders are selling their one year old Koi to their customers from around the world. During this time of the year, the breeders can do little work outside like the snow removal. Inside, the work continues and the breeders slowly prepare for the new season.

In winter, up to 4 of snow can fall in this area. Niigata also has one of the most popular ski areas in Japan.

During the months of March and April, the meters of snow that have fallen into the empty mud ponds melt. During the spring, the mud ponds fill with fresh and ice-cold melt water. When the sun warms the water, the growers can start preparing for the first Koi in the mud ponds.

First the smallest Koi and after that the larger ones. There can sometimes be weeks or even months in between. The reason? Smaller fish can do more against the temperature fluctuations during the first spring months than the bigger Koi.

During the hot summer months the fish grow very fast. In addition to feeding koi food, the Koi make optimal use of the many natural food sources such as shrimps, frogs and other high-protein foods. But there is another reason why this Koi grow so fast in a mud pond.

Niigata is known for its rich clay soils. The large presence of minarals and vitamins ensure that the Koi can develop optimally. A supply of fresh water and you have created the ideal growing environment for a fish.

It is now October, for every dealer and grower exciting times. The fish that were allowed to grow in the mudpond have grown enormously depending on their age. The younger the fish the more growth they get. When the Koi gets older they grow at a slower pace.

From all over the world dealers and hobbyists come to see which results their fish and those of the breeders have achieved. A whole happening where it is a party to see the Koi of very high quality at their very best.

After the nets against predators as bears and according to its removed start catching the fish. A precise job where a mistake produces the same extra work. Time that the growers desperately need during the harvest season.

When all fish are caught, they go to the greenhouses. Here all fish are checked for length, quality and health. The fish are also offered here for sale. If they are not sold, they will continue swimming in the winter waiting for a new potential owner.
