10 x Grade B Koi Carp Cyprinus Carpio

Overview: The Grade B Koi Carp is a visually captivating fish that brings vibrancy and grace to any pond or large aquarium. While not as flawlessly patterned or colored as their Grade A counterparts, these Koi still display a variety of colors and patterns, making each one uniquely beautiful. They can grow quite large, making them a central piece of your aquatic display.

Origin: Originally from Eastern Asia, Koi Carp have been bred for centuries to achieve the stunning varieties seen today. These resilient fish are descendants of Amur carp and have been a symbol of love and friendship in Japanese culture.

Feeding: Koi are omnivorous and thrive on a diet that includes both plant and animal materials. High-quality Koi pellets should form the basis of their diet, supplemented with fruits, vegetables, and occasional protein treats like worms or small crustaceans to ensure vibrant colors and proper nutrition.

Tank Mates: Being peaceful giants, Koi Carp are best kept with other Koi or similarly sized, non-aggressive pond fish. They may inadvertently harm smaller fish due to their size difference.

Aggression: Koi Carp are known for their docile and peaceful nature. They rarely show aggression towards tank mates, making them an excellent choice for community ponds.

Experience Level: Koi Carp are best suited for intermediate to experienced aquarists. Their need for large ponds, along with specific diet and health requirements, demands a level of care and understanding beyond beginner capabilities.
