I have been a koi enthusiast for years, and Kodama Koi Farm has consistently provided the highest quality koi fish I have ever seen. Their commitment to importing only the best from Niigata, Japan, and their meticulous quarantining procedures give me confidence in every purchase. The koi I bought last year are thriving and have become the centerpiece of my pond. I highly recommend Kodama Koi Farm for anyone looking to buy healthy and beautiful koi.

Kodama Koi Farm is a true gem in the koi community. The family-run operation combines traditional techniques from Niigata breeders with modern best practices to raise stunning koi fish. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and always ready to help with any questions about koi care. I’ve also purchased koi pond supplies and educational books from them, which have been invaluable in maintaining my pond. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my koi needs!
