Here's my look at it.....forget whether the koi is domestic or japanese bred.
Buy the very best quality koi you can afford. But buy them in varieties know for their strength. Koi like Asagi/shusui, Ogon, Chagoi have a better survival rate
to help cushion the learning curve yet for years people can enjoy having these varieties around to balance out their ponds when they grow enough confident to begin purchasing gosanke.
