2- This coming Sunday we intend to hold a ‘one off’ Koi Auction.
This Sunday at 11am we will be holding a 'one off' Koi Auction.
Many koi will have very low reserves or even no reserve. Nearly all koi have NEVER been seen before so a special weekend to grab yourself a bargain. Viewing starts at 10am the auction starts at 11am prompt. VAT is included in the sale price. No points or members discount apply to this event.
3- One of Richdon Koi’s main events is nearly here.
This is one NOT to miss!
Our 50,000gallon 1 year old harvest will take place on Saturday 26th September at 11am. For those who have koi growing on in this pond, this is one special weekend. For those who are interested in this service in the coming years then you are welcome to come along and see the results for yourself. Some koi are already well over 55cm and yes ONLY just over one year old.
Please remember most koi were placed into this specially designed growing pond in late May, June or July, with most koi growning beyond our expectations this year. This we put down to down to the maturity of the pond and our new growth food formulation.
Tea, coffee and some light refreshments will be made available on the day.
Please follow our bio-security procedures and signs to this event.

7 Which food this winter?
If you are heated and down to 11c then for sure our Nutrikoi performance is our main food choice, although Nutrikoi wheatgerm can be fed at any temperature above 5c. If you are already not using our food range then why not join the thousands who do? Our food is especially formulated for any type of filtration and koi pond. Especially for optimum koi transition, low cost, and specifically low waste. You will find it very difficult to find a better koi food in the UK!
8 Cover your pond!
If you need a pond cover this winter, why not order your Aquosis cover before it gets too cold? Please email Donna with your specifics on sales@richdon-koi.com Or why not cover your pond with Polycarb at crazy low prices www.nick-gray.co.uk , mention Richdon Koi each time you enquire or order from them! These are the only two methods we recommend to give maximum insulation this winter and to keep those heating bills down, or if not heated to keep those temperatures up!
Opening times for visiting:-
Saturday 10am to 5pm
Sunday 10am to 4pm
If you require some dry goods during the week and wish to visit give us a call first.
Our fish house remains CLOSED during the week, to allow our koi to rest after busy weekends.
