Let us help you find your next koi

Each October, we travel to Japan to hand-select the finest koi from world-renowned breeders. Now you can be part of this journey.

With our Koi Pre-Order Service, you can request a specific koi in advance. Simply place a $100 deposit per fish, and we’ll search for your ideal koi during our buying trip.

✅ Deposit goes toward your purchase

✅ Fully refundable if we don’t find the koi you’re looking for

Whether you're seeking a beautiful show quality koi or an unusual koi to add to your pond, this is your chance to bring home something truly special.

Looking for Inspiration?

Try exploring our gallery of koi that we hand selected on previous trips to Japan. Even though all these koi have already been sold, this gallery can give you some insight into the wide variety of koi available to you.

Browsing through this koi selection can help you find the styles, sizes, and patterns that truly speak to you. This collection is a great way to refine your preferences and guide us in finding the perfect koi for your pond this year.

And remember—if something catches your eye, make a note of that koi’s serial number, and then give our koi department a call. We’ll do our best to find a match during our upcoming trip to Japan.

Peace of Mind for Your Pond

Because koi health comes first at Sacramento Koi, every imported koi enjoys a four-month wellness program designed to allow the koi to recover from its long trip, remove parasite, and safeguard against serious viruses like Koi Herpes Virus (KHV). Separated by breeder, each group koi live in their own heated pond with independent filtration and kept at a comfortable 68°F during this period.

That means koi purchased in December will be ready for pickup or shipping beginning March 1st. The best part? While they’re with us, your koi are protected, pampered, and thriving—kept warm, well-fed, and in peak condition—so when spring arrives, they’re ready to bring beauty and vitality to your pond.
