Pickup, Shipping & Quarantine

Individual Pickup and Shipping Period

Each Koi has an individual pickup and shipping period. You can find the binding date directly in the product description of the respective Koi.

Note:
This Koi has an individual pickup and shipping period. Pickup or scheduling for shipping must take place by August 14, 2026 at the latest. Up to this point, professional keeping, care, and preparation of your Koi are already included in the purchase price.

Please consider this date when making your purchase decision. It allows us to optimally plan our keeping and shipping capacities and simultaneously ensures species-appropriate care for the animals.

Appointment Booking

After purchase, it is necessary to book a pickup or shipping appointment.

You can quickly and easily select your preferred date via our appointment portal. Your Koi will only be prepared for handover and scheduled accordingly after the appointment has been booked.

Pickup & Shipping

The purchase price includes not only your Koi but also its professional keeping, daily care, and professional preparation for pickup or shipping until the date specified in the respective offer. Within this period, you will incur no additional keeping costs.

After the period specified in the offer has expired, we will charge – unless otherwise specified – a keeping fee of €10.00 per Koi per commenced week.

All Koi from the 2025/2026 season must have been picked up or scheduled for shipping by the end of the season in September 2026 at the latest. Regardless, the individual pickup or shipping period of the respective offer always applies.

If you are unable to keep your appointment or have questions about the process, please contact us early. Together we will find a suitable solution.

Quarantine & Health Management

The health and well-being of our Koi are our top priority. After their arrival from Japan, all animals are kept under optimal conditions in our facility and continuously monitored.

Unless otherwise specified in the respective offer, our Koi spend at least six weeks in controlled quarantine or observation keeping before being handed over to their new owner. During this time, they are carefully observed, accustomed to our water conditions, and optimally prepared for later transport.

Regular microscopic examinations for parasites and worm infestations are as standard for us as continuous monitoring of water quality, behavior, and the general condition of the animals. This allows potential abnormalities to be detected and treated early.

It is our aspiration to hand over only healthy, vital, and optimally prepared Nishikigoi to you.

Veterinary care for our facility is provided by Dr. Rob Heymans.
