How to Hand-feeding Your Koi Fish (Fingers Therapy)

Hello everyone! Lately, i've been teaching my koi fishes to get the food by approaching to my hands. I've found many people feel a little bit hard for feeding their kois come close to hands. Well me, i tried to make my kois diet at first. Previously at my pond, there are 9 big koi fishes. But now it added about 13 baby koi fishes. I can say their behavior is different as baby kois are in better class. Before, I fed them three times a day with large hand grip. Then, I read some references and got enlightenment.

Don't give too much food to your kois. Don't worry about they feel hungry or lack of food. Basically, inside your fish pond some algae and mosses exist. I feed my kois only twice a day, in the morning time and night time before i go to sleep. So now, before feeding them i always put my fingers into water, play with them and they'll approach.

Like this is how i feed my lovely koi fishes:


Hand-feeding koi fishes is exciting!



Hope it can inspire you.
Spread the love <3

The 4th Asia Cup Young Koi Show

Hello everyone! I know it's not Wednesday but let me tell you my great story of this week in English.

Well, yesterday May 2nd, 2015 my parents and me went to 4th Asia Cup Young Koi Show at Surabaya Supermal Convention Center (SSCC). It's still about koi fishes everyone haha. Like i've told you my parents and me love having koi fishes. As true koi lovers, we pleasured to visit it. It lasts for three days only, May 1st-3rd 2015. The show is joined by 400 participants around Asia such as Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia. But, koi's clubs local are dominating. The judges are from Japan, Malaysia, Vietnam and Indonesia.

To be honest, it was my first time to visit koi fishes show and I couldn't be happier about it. Here's me:

Lovely, isn't it? Haha. The hall is so big and large. When we came in, the judgement was already started. The owners had to measure their fishes by themselves. But, if the judges see there's the size of the fish is suspicious so they measure it.

Judgment
I was mesmerized by the blue big tube thing. It's the fish temporary pond. It uses for the show only. 


We also saw big and high quality koi fishes there. But, i didn't take any single photo of it sorry. I once asked to one of the owners of koi farms, "How much are these Kohaku?" Then he said, "Well, these three packages are already booked. Each of it 5 millions rupiah." "Hmm...very great!" I only could say that haha. What a fish! Each package consists of three Kohaku (variety of koi fish) with size 33-35 cm. Basically, all koi fishes over there are sold nearly millions rupiah. But you are guaranteed by the high quality. Koi fishes which are shown over there include in superb class. 

So, that's all peeps. Spread the love <3
