- Unlocking the Mystery: How is a Koi's Value Determined
Are you thinking of investing in more expensive Koi? Have you ever wondered why a particular koi is valued much higher than others that look similar? Or are you simply interested to learn how the values of koi are determined? If so this video will tell you all you need to know.
Before you spend a small fortune on that jumbo tosai that costs the same as a second hand car, watch this video as you may be making a BIG costly mistake.
This will also help you to maximise the future value of your new fish as well as minimise any potential losses.

Hi Dazzle, Some good points. What I missed in the video is the supply and demand of the market. Particularly China. For example, 90% of all Sakai's tosai go to China. Now that China is no longer allowed to import since a few weeks ago, prices will fall.
Hello there Yvo, that's some great information, I had no idea about the restrictions in China. That could have a big impact on the hobby on many different levels.
Next time you are in the UK I'd love to meet up with you at Tim's and have a coffee and a chat.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment 🍻🍻🍺🍻🍻
Nice info Daz for the Koi keeper that potentially wants to move to the next level.👍
Thanks mate 👍👍
Very interesting video. I think people starting out very often are looking to buy cheap and find it's worth a fortune. When you've been in the game for only a short while, you realise that's almost never going to happen. Fortunately we bought fish for our pleasure only and so far have been very happy with them.
I can't ever imagine wanting to show them, but I understand peoples desire to do this; it's been the same for many years, eg. Dog shows, rabbit show, cat shows, etc etc. So fish are just a little more complicated, but obviously still do able. As a newby though, I look at the fish at koi shows and it makes me think we have not gone too far wrong with ours...I'm sure a judge would disagree!
A very happy koi keeper.
Hi there and thank you very much for taking the time to comment. I cant disagree with anything you say. I was very serious about my koi and it became all encompassing. I spent a fortune on ponds, filters, heating and koi themselves. My circumstances changed and I was out of the hobby for a few years I then built my little pond during lockdown to pass some time and give the garden a bit of interest and I can honestly say I get as much pleasure from this as I did when I had a huge pond full of good quality koi. The difference is I don't have half the stress and I can sleep at night 😁
Another point worth mentioning is that if you`re hoping to buy a koi to try to increase its value and sell on for profit - I wouldn`t bother !
In the vast majority of cases the selling price for a hobbyist will be a fraction of the price they would have to pay to replace the same fish from a dealer . The main reason being is that most keepers with expensive fish will only buy from trusted sources , because of risk of infection , ect .
Very good point mate. As a koi keeper, your money only goes one way, and that is out 😁
INTERESTING--- I THINK THE VALUE OF A FISH IS WHAT YOU ARE WILLING TO PAY--WHEN I BUY MY FISH IF I WANT A RED AND WHITE FISH FIRST THING I LOOK AT IS THE PRICE THEN I LOOK AT HEALTH/QUALITY AND DOES IT LOOK NICE TO MY EYE NOT WHERE THE POSITION OF THE COLOURS ARE. I KNOW ITS A PERSONAL THING BUT THATS MINE.
Great advice Daz
Thanks a lot 👍👍👍
Hi Daz, I have been out of the loop for some time and trying to catch up on your posts. Forgive me if I have missed it but haven't seen anything on Ozone Generators.
I was looking for a comparative for the generators, something like your comparative between UV clarifiers and sterilisers. I am not sure if they are the way to go as some of the results I have seen.
look too good to be true. Hope you can shed some light on this or direct me to something you may have already posted?
By the way I built your Bakki Shower design shortly after you posted it and thank you for the design plan. It is working very well for my system.
Hi mate, its good to hear your shower is doing the business. I'm still delighted with mine, haven't touched it since the day I put it on either 👍
Ozone is a subject I studied about 15 years ago when I was getting pretty serious about my koi and the quality of koi I was buying. I decided at the time that while there are some clear benefits to it, most of the benefits can be had in other ways and I didn't think it was worth the expense and the work involved. Maybe if you have show winning koi or very high end tosai with potential to realise it is worth it. I'm very much a fan of keeping things simple and consistent now and ozone doesn't really tick either of those boxes.
I do have it on my list of videos though so I will definitely talk about it at some point in the future
Where are you located great info
Hi there and thank you very much. I'm in the North West UK, between Liverpool and Manchester 👍👍
