HIGH QUALITY SPIRULINA

Spirulina is a high-protein, digestible superfood. The carotenoids contained in spirulina have the effect of brightening the red color of Koi. The carotenoid content varies greatly depending on the place of origin and the season, but in general, the higher the content, the better the quality of spirulina. The carotenoid concentration of Mr. Kodama is about 2 times higher than the concentration of commonly used spirulina carotenoids.


      * According to a survey by Kodama Koi Farm

RAW WHEAT GERM

The naturally occurring Vitamin E contained in raw wheat germ is also used in health foods as germ oil. This Vitamin E enhances the immunity of the Koi and activates metabolism to improve luster and brighten the white skin. The “raw wheat germ” used by Mr. Kodama contains about 35 times more natural Vitamin E than the commonly used “defatted wheat germ”.


FRESH FISHMEAL

Raw materials for fishmeal such as sardines and saury, gain a higher palatability, digestibility and safety, the fresher they are. The longer it takes to process these fish, the more likely they will oxidize and spoil, resulting in a higher histamine content, which in turn causes numerous health problems. Mr. Kodama’s food has only 1/10th the histamine content of commonly used prime grade fishmeal.

    I love the high quality of the Kodama color up! My Hi Utsuri, Sanke and Kohaku really benefit from the high quality wheat germ and spirulina. Plenty of companies make a “color” food, but not with the amount or quality that Kodama color up has! Once you use this, you won’t go back! Thank you Kodama for having such a high quality food available to the hobby!

  2. Edgar A –

    I have been a customer of yours since 2017 and I love buying koi from you and they are excellent, the healthy ones that they are and at the same time very resistant to diseases. Now I am dealing with Mr Kodama’s food, I hope to have a good result like his koi. Thank you.

  3. James D R –

    We have used the Mr Kodama Color Up and All Season koi food for several years. We have 24 large Koi, from 18″ – 28″ and they are spectacular.

    I’ve been using this fish food for over a year. It does great with the fish. They grow very well. I got fished out at about 10 inches long now six months to eight months there about 16 to 18 inches long.

    Been using this fish food for over a year now In about six months I got fish that was about 10 inches in length and now they’re about 16 to 18

  8. Birger Luecht (verified owner) –

    I’ve been only purchasing Kodoma branded items for years now. I like and most importantly the fish love it.
    Sorry to have order now via website after the closing of our local store in NJ., but the shipping is prompt and successful every time.

  9. Brian S –

    I have and still do feed my koi a variety of foods. Kodama food is one of the few they eat with no hesitation even when it’s not their normal diet. Growth was also great on this food.

  10. joyce wilcox –

    My fish look great!! I used color up all summer and my fish are much brighter, great product

  11. joyce wilcox –

    Never had a problem with this food , my fish are healthier and they love the food.

  12. Loni Vogler (verified owner) –

    Exclusively use Mr Kodama koi foods and high silk sweet potato I like to mix a floating and sinking as well as different varieties in each feed batch. the difference in their vigor, impressive growth, skin quality and colors of all of my fish leave me without a doubt that these are the best foods and I wouldn’t want to ever use anything else!
    PS, Love Manda Fu as well, I try not to run out! (All but 2 of my koi gladly hand feed anything i provide now). I may teach a class 😀
    Occasional treats of prawns, grapefruit, cabbage, or watermelon give them variety.

    My 33 year old Koi has LOVED his new favorite Mr. Kodama Color-Up Koi Food from the first feeding in early September 2022. Its changed Roi’s scales from dull to rich and strong and the color has popped to vibrant red/orange, dark black, bold silver/grays and beautiful white. Roi is more extroverted and eager to eat. All of this I attribute to sound nutrition with Mr. Kodama. I highly recommend it!

  14. Geoffrey Collins (verified owner) –

    Kodama Koi food is the best koi food. I have tried several brands over the years including Hi Silk. My koi are healthier and produce less waste with Kodama Koi food.

  15. Brian Suter (verified owner) –

    Great product, fast shipping. Anything from Koi to food, always easy to do business with Kodama.

  16. Barna Wesley (verified owner) –

    I ordered 10lbs of Colorup but received All Seasons instead. So far my emails have received no responsive in how to get the correct product shipped. If my order is ever corrected, I will be willing to update my review. In the mean time I have ordered food from another company.

  17. Anonymous (verified owner) –

    I would highly recommend this food. My Koi have been raised on it. And they are big bright and healthy.

  18. Anonymous (verified owner) –

    First time buy this product, got it for about a week. The fishes seem like it. Rated 4 stars because not enough time to comment about color enhancement.

  19. toby Florman (verified owner) –

    I finally found a food that my koi love (they’re very spoiled)!
    They are growing like crazy and their colors are bright and vibrant, we are very happy with Colorup!

  20. Jimmy (verified owner) –

    My fish have become happier, more excitable and active on Top of their colors becoming more vibrant. They’re just beautiful!
    I am very happy with their health and just as much so with the customer service and product quality from Kodama Koi Supply. They have my business without a doubt.

  21. JohnL (verified owner) –

    I purchased the color food for my Koi but they don’t seem to be eating it as I find most of it in my pond filter. Usually when I feed them they gobble up the food within a few minutes. This food they just swim about and don’t even try it or taste it. I’lll keep giving them this food and perhaps they’ll be hungry enough to eat it but now after a few weeks it isn’t happening. I’m not sure what to do as I purchased two 5lb packages.

  22. Curt (verified owner) –

    This is a great product and I love the new sleeves that keep the food fresh. I’m just upset I didn’t receive my Tategoi Scratch & Win card with my purchase.

  23. Eric (verified owner) –

    I bought the food this spring and have waited until August to review. I’ve previously bought high quality imported and domestic food. My koi genuinely look better with this Kodama food. The colors really pop; the reds are deeper and the white more pure and dense. My Kodama Yamabuki Ogon’s yellow is vibrant, and Ai Goromo is stunning. I had a spawn last year and the ‘babies’ are growing spectacularly. Really, honestly good stuff.

  24. Anonymous (verified owner) –

    High quality ingredients to bring out the colors and koi like the food.

    I have recently bought a bunch of koi fish to fill my pond and this product has really worked out for me and helped me develop my pond.

    I have had very good luck with both the Color Up and the Wheat Germ koi food. The fish love both and they are very healthy and colorful.
