Manda Hi Silk Saki-Hikari Kodama Koi Food Others
  Saki-Hikari
 

Hikari's scientifically developed Saki-Hikari diets utilize the finest quality ingredients and the most complete and balanced nutritional package we could develop, making it the most technologically advanced Koi food available today. Here are the reasons professional Koi breeders throughout Japan have made Saki-Hikari their first choice for producing the finest Koi.

Saki-Hikari Helps Make your Filter More Effective

A very important requirement for breeding and raising Koi successfully is clear, clean water. the environment the Koi are kept in can radically impact their growth and development. Saki-Hikari is highly digestible and its improved assimilation can significantly reduce the volume of waste excreted by your Koi. Additionally, the waste decomposition continues after excretion thereby allowing your filter to more readily handle the waste load. This can result in reduced filter maintenance and an improved environment for your Koi.

Saki-Hikari Can Improve REsistance To Disease

Hikari has always believed the use of potentially dangerous medicines or immune boosters should be avoided and that prevention is always the best course of action. The complete nutritional package in Saki-Hikari and the vitamin and mineral components, including stabilized vitamin C, help reduce stress and thereby stress induced illness while promoting good bacteria balance in the intestinal tract.

Test Data
Test period : 18 days
Test fish :
Nishikigoi, less than 1 year old
# of fish : 30
Feeding amount :
2 % of the body weight per day
Test Result

The rapid, bacterial decomposition of the Koi's waste caused by the "Hikari Germ" drastically reduces buildup in the filter media thereby reducing the frequency of regularly scheduled maintenance. Overall improvement of the water clarity and condition are side benefits of this process.

Filter media after feeding experiment

After an 18 days feeding period the amount of accumulated excrement was compared. There was a significantly lower level of waste found in the Saki-Hikari fed pond media.

Media from common food tank

Media from Saki-Hikari fed tank

Collected filter media sludge

After thoroughly rinsing the filter media and precipitating out the collected sludge, the volume of raw waste collected in each of the test filters was measured. Test results showed the tank fed Saki-Hikari contained almost half the waste of the tank fed common Koi food.
