Nurturing Kois To Championship-level Form

Chagoi Hirasawa, along with the rest of the participating kois in the event, required special care from its hobbyist to thrive. Apart from kois being carefully hand-raised to its top form, it needs to be in a pond that has a good filtration system to keep the water clean and healthy. Water has to be changed regularly and monitored for its quality.

Ultimately, kois should have a healthy, balanced diet to achieve their championship form.
