33rd Annual Southern Arizona Koi Association koi show

Wednesday, November 7th, 2012

I’ve been to this koi show event in the past and it’s really everything you need to know about koi fish, and how to raise them.
More info: www.sakoia.org. They even have Japanese cultural demonstrations at this show, such as swords and traditional dance.
