You need some of the folks with long years of experience to share some advice. I'll start with the following:

1. Do not use color enhancing food until the koi is reaching maturity.

2. If you are willing to work at water parameters, then soft water is better than hard water.

3. Maintain high water quality with low nitrate.

4. Natural sunlight, but not too much. Let her have shady retreats.
