it is very tempting to grow koi fast, especially the beautiful ones. But I think it is more important to keep them healthy, happy and alive.
few months ago, I had a kohaku, 35cm at 9 months, growing at a rate of 4 cm per month after I got it. It was my best kohaku, but it is living in koi-heaven now. (suudden death, no wound, nothing).
I live in northern California, so, big grow can occur everywhere.
perople get so stucked up with growing koi fast, and yet still believe in the 'zen' aspect of koi. What a world.
