Following is a transcript of the video:
Recently, this fish was sold for a high amount of 1.8 million dollars. And for that amount she may call herself the most expensive koi fish ever sold.
For some it is just a fish, but for some people it is often a piece of art, collection or investment. If you have always wondered why Koi fish are so expensive, keep looking until the end.
Well, let's start at the beginning: every spring, the Japanese Koi breeders produce hundreds of thousands of new Koi. But only the best and most beautiful fish get it to the final round. The selection process is a time-consuming task and the therefore koi breeders are working all spring and summer to get the job done.
The breeders pay attention to a number of characteristics: first of all body shape, length, skin quality and ay last pattern.
The breeders know exactly what to look out for and are trained in recognizing any champions.
Euhm, potential champions?
OOH YES! During the year, many koi shows are organized around the world. For a hobbyist the ultimate goal to win a price with one of their fish. Japanese Breeders are flying around the world to judge who has the best and best fish in his or her category.
Back to the selection process. When a breeders is convinced that a fish meets all requirements, he will not sell it yet. In fact, he lets them grow in one of his mud ponds in the mountains.
These mud ponds have a lot of natural food and the temperatures in the summer are so high that the fish grow very fast.
Before the winter starts, the breeder gets his fish out of the mud pond and then offers them for sale.
When the breeder decides to sell a fish he will only do this if he wants it at the right amount.
Once sold, the fish can be shipped anywhere in the world. How do they do that?
When the growers know that fish are being sent, they all gather in one place. The Koi fish are carefully packed and can survive for up to 48 hours in a box.
After the fish are packed, they immediately go to the airport on a truck.
Once arrived in the destination country, the final steps are taken before the fish can enter their new ponds.
Upon arrival, the veterinarian checks the health of the fish, after which the customs must clear the fish.
When all controls have been completed, the dealer or hobbyist can take the fish and transfer them as quickly as possible to the pond or quarantaine pond.
