A Koi for a Kid

Kids love animals and birds. They like to grow them as their pet. The only pet in our house is koi. So Antony and I thought we will buy at least a koi for each kid. They get to name them and grow them.

Once when we were attending Pan Intercorp live koi auction at Kenmore, Washington, our kids participated in that with our permission. Our oldest son Nikhil bought his first koi for 10 cents. It was a koi that was one and a half inch. We brought them over and trained Nikhil to take care of his koi. Nikhil was happy to have his own koi in the pond.

Koi Release at Portland Japanese Garden.

In conjunction with The Childrens day celebration on May 7th, 2011, The Portland Japanese Garden, released 18 koi to the upper Koi Pond. In 2008 winter storm in Portland, Oregon, Garden lost almost all of their koi. During that time, none of the garden helpers could get to the garden because of the heavy snow. The Koi suffocated due to the layer of ice that covered the pond and died. Koi needed air circulation to breath and it needs at lease 4 feet deep pond to survive winter. After this, Japanese Garden did a huge rennovations to the Koi Ponds and made it safe for the koi.

Welcome to Koi Gallery

Welcome to Koi Gallery. Koi Gallery is another effort by Koi TV®. We as a family, enjoy Koi Hobby, through this hobby we have met new friends from East to West and North to South.We have been working really hard to bring the best in the Koi world to our viewers. Koi TV has been travelling along and have collected some pictures from previous years of Koi Shows, Seminars, Ikeage, Pond Tours and etc.

Our dream is to bring all koi related photos to one place. Koi Gallery is the first to do so. We are happy and proud to achieve this goal that will make a difference in this koi world.

Some of the old photos were taken in point and shoot cameras and from video cameras. Sumi gave a camera as my birthday gift. So now I have a Nikon D7000. This gives me an opportunity to take quality koi photos. I am still a learner. But, I am happy to share my learning experiecne with our viewers. Stay tuned to Koi TV®, Koi Gallery and Koi Calendar for Koi related videos, photos and events. Your support is greatly appreciated by all of us.
