  • Trip to South east Koi dealer in first half of the video who import all their Koi direct from japanese breeders.
    Second half of video I will be explaining the experiment I'm going to do on the Saki-Hikari food to be able to understand where it sits on value and quality.

    Definitely agree that saki is the best koi food. I've feed my koi with saki for a year now & the results are really great. And it doesn't cloud their water.

      Yeah biggest difference I saw In very short time was water quailty. Check one of the newer videos if you wanna see my thoughts. Cheers for commenting 👍

    I’ve used Saki on High end Goldfish and Koi , because of the heavier feeding in the koi pond v Fancy’s when I’ve used cheaper food the pond gets a layer of proteins and bubbles on it relatively easily. With Saki it does not the food seems to stay inside the fish to a much greater degree . The ingredients are a higher quality and not full of fillers . To get a protein layer on pond with Saki and bubbles you have to feed recklessly

      Awesome thankyou. Thats what I like to hear. Although for the money I do expect to see a stark contrast.

      @@shaunleonard8146 how do you find that ?

    • @shaunleonard8146

      Great grow rates and very little waste. But 2 years ago they altered the ingredients from fish meal to more animal proteins and less fishmeal and flavoured it with insect meal

    Saki is a lot cleaner. And performs better imo

    • @OrchardKoi
      @OrchardKoi  Před rokem

      Certainly interesting to see the difference

    Saki no doubt is good food, but there are other brands who use really good ingredients and are much less expensive.
    Feeding fish Saki or these other top end foods will result in the same result, the difference is in ones head.

      Cheers for commenting. This is what I want to see, as like you said it is so much more money. I'm interested to find out.
