We’re proud to unveil 300 hand-selected Japanese Koi from top breeder Maruhiro, many of which have already caught the attention of visiting Koi keepers over the past few weeks. Now it’s time for the big release—and here’s how it will unfold:
🏆 VIP Elite Koi Club Member Selection – Starts at 10:00 AM (In-Store Only)
To honour our commitment to our amazing Elite Koi Club members, they will get first pick of the Maruhiro 300 during this exclusive in-store event.
Selection order will be decided live on the day using our Wheel of Fortune, making the process fun and completely fair!
Once the order is drawn:
The first member in line selects one Koi.
They pass the net to the next in line, and so on…
When the last person in line selects, they get the chance to pick a second Koi before the net returns to the top of the queue.
This rotation continues until all members have finished selecting or stepped out of the line.
📌 Important Rule: Once a member steps out of the selection line, they cannot rejoin until the Koi go on general sale.
📍 This is an in-store only event – you must be present at Elite Koi to participate in the VIP selection.
📩 Registration Required:
All Elite Koi Club members must register to take part by 2:00 PM on Friday, May 23rd.
💥 General Sale Opens After Club Selection – First Come, First Served!
Once the VIP pick is complete, the Maruhiro 300 goes on general sale.
This will be on a first come, first served basis, and everyone is welcome to attend from 10:00 AM to watch the event unfold and grab a beautiful Koi once nets are released!
