We hope you are enjoying part 1 and Part 2, but we are excited to offer you even more tosai from some of the most famous breeders in Japan. This is a great way to affordably access many different varieties of koi all in one spot. Normally full-grown koi sell for high prices, but with the Study Tategoi program (where koi are randomly selected for you) you can affordably get young koi and watch them grow and develop in your pond.

Great Pricing and Selections

This year we will be showcasing a Spring Study Tategoi Part 4:

  • Over 1,000 individual koi
  • 14 tosai varieties to choose from
  • 13 excellent koi breeders

Prices currently range from $69–$119. All are at great prices and randomly selected. These koi will likely sell out fast; so select your favorites!

These koi are all pre-selected by Taro Kodama and are top-quality koi, so requesting to select individual koi is not an option.

🚚 Special Shipping Rates

Buy any Study Tategoi combination of:

  • 1–4 koi to ship for only $99
  • 5 or more koi to ship for FREE

Important: Please give customer service 2 week in advance notice of your preferred shipping date. You can contact customer service at +1 (833) 546-5683 or info@kodamakoifarm.com

What is the “Study Tategoi” program?

 

There are many ways to study koi. A lot of videos and articles are available on the Internet. You can have knowledge on the koi variety, breeder, how they may develop, etc.; but you can never get the experience online.

In order to fully understand koi, nothing is better than raising them yourself in your own pond.  Only by raising these koi in your pond, can you see the color, quality, and how they will grow and develop their beauty. As a hobbyist, you want to get this experience with minimal investment.

Study Tategoi program offers this experience at an affordable price. At Study Tategoi program, we select the breeder of a group of fine quality tategoi (future koi). By offering them randomly picked, Kodama Koi Farm can keep the cost low for you; and you get to enjoy a high-demand bloodline with confidence in quality.

Study Tategoi Continues!

Have you had the chance to check out part 1 and part 2 of our study tategoi promotion? There are still many different varieties of high quality study tategoi available for you to purchase. Check out part 1 and part 2 see what is left!

Taniguchi Koi Farm

Mr. Yoichi Taniguchi

Mr. Taniguchi is a gifted breeder from south of Japan. We do grow out contests with his Koi every year. So I am sure many of you may be familiar with the quality of his Kohaku and Sanke. He always surprises us with the quality of his Koi. This year, he did it again. This time, it is not Gosanke, but Kawarimono or unique Koi.

It is called "GOLDEN CORN." Please see the transformation pictures of his golden corn. The transformation is nothing but breathtaking. Being in the industry, I have pretty good idea how Koi may turn out as it grows. But the change of this variety is simply unpredictable. Unexpected transformation and unexpected growth (they have DNA of over 40" chagoi) are the highlight of Golden Corn.

I do not believe too many golden corn are available in the US yet. I am very happy that we can offer this surprising beauty.

 

Golden Corn Examples
