I’ve been buying from Kev for nearly 8 years now and have had well over 40 fish from him. The quality has always been outstanding, with exceptional development over time. EK is one of the few places where what you see is truly what you get - an honest, passionate business that genuinely cares.

Most impressed with Exclusively Koi. Recieved a Columbo pond test kit from them which was sealed and very well wrapped. On opening the inner tray that holds the bottles was very damaged. They offered to replace kit straight away. Customer service second to none. Thank you.

We visited Exclusively koi for the first time today and I cannot praise Kevin enough. He has the highest customer service and is extremely personable and had time to talk to us and gave so much advice and information it was an absolute delight. He knows his subject and is driven by supplying the best quality not only in the fish but also in other stock items and food. The prices were excellent and he is very, very fair and customer oriented. His information was straightforward and honest and I highly recommend Exclusively koi to anyone. We will be going back and Kevin and the team will be our go-to for all our koi needs from now on.

I came across Exclusively Koi by complete chance as i was looking up koi auctions online and I was lucky enough to find Kevin's fantastic koi up for auction. I took part in some of those auctions and was fortunate enough to win some beautiful koi, Kevin has been very helpful throughout the entire process and was happy to keep the koi for me a bit longer to suit my needs. The koi got shipped out on my chosen day and they arrived the next day very safely packaged with plenty of air. Each koi is even more beautiful in person and they're bigger than i expected which is a very pleasant surprise. The koi are currently dealing with some stress from the long journey here but Kevin is very quick to answer any of my questions and offer advice to help the koi get settled in. Very grateful for the great customer service and i can definitely see myself emptying my entire bank account at Exclusively Koi. I decided to attend the national Koi show today, I was pleasantly surprised to see exclusively koi had a stall at the show! Dare I say they had some of the nicest koi for sale but even more importantly the prices were extremely reasonable! If I had the room I would have easily bought several koi. Massive thanks to the team, keep up the good work

FAQs

What is Saki Hikari Balance sinking koi food designed for?

It's an all-round daily diet for koi that promotes health, steady growth, and good body shape. Think of it as the foundation food in the Saki Hikari range. It doesn't push growth as hard as the Growth formula or colour as aggressively as the Colour Enhancing, but it does everything well. A proper balanced daily diet.

What temperature can I feed Saki Hikari Balance sinking pellets?

Feed when the water temperature is 11°C or above. That gives it a wider feeding window than the Growth or Colour Enhancing formulas, making it a practical choice for UK keepers who want a reliable daily food across more of the year.

What is the nutritional content of Saki Hikari Balance sinking food?

It has a minimum of 40% crude protein and 6% crude fat. The slightly lower fat content compared to the Growth formula means steady, fat-deposit-free growth. Your koi build proper body shape without the health risks that come from excess internal fat.

Why choose sinking pellets for my koi?

Koi are natural bottom feeders. Some fish are more comfortable feeding lower in the water, especially in ponds with a lot of surface activity or skimmers. Sinking pellets also work well for shy koi that won't always come to the surface. It's about what suits your fish and your pond.

Does Saki Hikari Balance sinking food improve water quality?

Yes. The Hikari-Germ probiotic improves how well your koi digest the food, which means less waste going into the water. The waste that does get produced is also more broken down, making it easier for your filter to handle. A lot of keepers notice cleaner water and less maintenance on their filtration.

Is Saki Hikari Balance sinking food suitable for all koi?

Yes. It's a daily diet that works for all championship-grade koi or any koi you want to keep in top condition. Whether you've got a pond full of tosai or mature koi, the Balance formula gives them a solid nutritional foundation.

Can I use Saki Hikari Balance sinking food with other Saki Hikari products?

If you're going to switch between Saki Hikari products — say, Balance in spring and autumn, Growth or Colour in summer — that's a reasonable approach. The key thing is to avoid mixing different brands in the same feeding, as the Hikari-Germ probiotic works best when fed consistently and exclusively.
