Kodama Koi Farm Collection

Kodama Koi Farm Collection

Kodama Koi Farm, based in Hawaii, is one of the most respected koi breeding and importing operations in the United States. Play It Koi is proud to offer hand-selected koi from Kodama's collection — fish raised in Hawaii's warm, mineral-rich volcanic water that provides ideal growing conditions year-round. Mamoru Kodama and his team personally select koi from top breeders in Japan and raise them at their Maui facility, where consistent tropical temperatures allow for accelerated growth and color development that mainland facilities cannot match.

Why Kodama Koi Farm

Kodama's approach combines traditional Japanese breeding expertise with modern husbandry techniques. Their Hawaii facility provides a unique advantage — water temperatures that remain consistently warm allow fish to grow continuously without the metabolic slowdown that winter brings to mainland operations. This means Kodama koi often reach impressive sizes faster and develop deeper, more saturated colors earlier in life. Every fish in their program is inspected multiple times for body conformation, pattern quality, and overall health before being offered to dealers.

Available Varieties

The Kodama Koi Farm collection at Play It Koi typically includes popular Gosanke varieties — Kohaku, Sanke, and Showa — alongside metallic varieties, Doitsu, and specialty fish. Availability changes frequently as new imports arrive from Japan and fish from the Hawaii growing program reach sale size. For collectors seeking specific varieties or sizes, contacting our team directly is the best way to find the perfect fish. Browse the full koi fish selection alongside Japanese koi and premium koi options.

Caring for Your Kodama Koi

Premium koi from Kodama deserve premium care. Quarantine every new arrival for two to four weeks with prophylactic parasite treatment. Feed a seasonal rotation of high-quality koi food — growth formula in summer, color enhancer through warm months, and wheat germ in cooler temperatures. Excellent filtration, regular water testing, and low stocking density allow these fish to reach their full genetic potential.
