I deal with Blackwater creek, and many of my fish come from there. I have heard that Suda has some partnership/ownership in BWK koi farm. This type of situation helps keep the breeding stock quality good. I think that as the American koi market increases, japanese breeders will realize there is real money to be made in the US. Some others may set up shop here as well...investing in established farms, like Suda, or starting from scratch.
As far as whats already here...Quality is good. I think the Japanese top 1% is light years ahead of the USA top 1%. There is no showa I have seen in this country to compare to the Dainichi or Maruyama GC showa's. I do believe that in the smaller sizes, the gap closes a great deal.
