Koi, sometimes known as Nishikigoi, are the multi-hued varieties of carp first developed and bred in Japan. However, in recent years Koi keeping has expanded to all corners of the globe and become one of the most popular and sophisticated pastimes around. Unfortunately, authentic Koi keeping is a complex and precise science, a fact many people are not aware of. But, as author Peter Cole explains, just because the task is complex doesn't mean that it's too hard to master. Keeping information simple, Coyle covers all aspects, from buying, rearing and health care to vital details of pond construction, water supply, and seasonal aspects.
