Koi varieties and their size
A common question I get asked is which koi type is the
largest and which koi variety is the smallest koi? Generally speaking koi can
grow to 100 centimetres in the right conditions. A lot is dependent on Feeding Koi good food and how
will they are cared for.
Koi varieties and their prices
The cost of a koi fish will depend on the koi type and age
of the koi fish. They can cost a few hundred pounds and as they grow can be
worth a few thousand pounds.
