Can a japanese koi be brought back to China?
If you buy a japanese koi, you can take it home. Japanese koi must follow the procedures and quarantine instructions when bringing it back to China. Japanese koi is a valuable large-scale ornamental fish, known as "the living gem in water" and "the king of ornamental fish". Its life span is usually 60~70 years, and its body length can reach 1~ 1.5 meters. The beauty of these koi fish is that with the change of age and ambient water temperature, the color and shape of their patterns will change constantly, just like special ink paintings drawn by hand. Top grade koi fish is one in a thousand, depending on the pedigree, skeleton, color, pattern, swimming style and so on. Japanese koi takes "red and white", "Dazheng tricolor" and "Showa tricolor" as the most representative varieties, commonly known as "three fish".
