SUMMARY:2025 Dallas Koi Kichi Koi Show
DESCRIPTION:In Collaboration with the 2025 Dallas Aquashella Expo \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDallas Koi Kichi Group \n2025 Koi Show Competitor’s Information \nShow Competitors\, please read the following very carefully! \nTank Reservations / Fees: \nDallas Koi Kichi Group (DKK) follows the “English Style” koi show system whereby each competitor will have their own koi tank(s). Competitor entry fee is based on the amount of tanks needed. The fee for the tanks will be $100.00 each.  A “Novice” competitor who is entering a koi show for the very first time will get a 20% discount (limit 1 tank). \nBONUS: Each koi show competitor will get 2 entry passes to the Aquashella Expo event. \nPayment can be made online during registration (preferred) or by check (details below). \nNumber of Koi per Tank: \nPlease use the following formula as a guide to determine how many fish can be placed in each 7-foot show tank. Multiply the size category (1-8) of your fish by the number of fish you are showing in that size and then sum up for all fish.  Note: Butterfly/Long fin koi are measured nose to base of tail. \n\nSize 1 = up to 10” (or 25cm)\nSize 2 = 10” up to 13” (or 25 to 33cm)\nSize 3 = 13” up to 16” (or 33 to 41cm)\nSize 4 = 16” up to 19” (or 41 to 48cm)\nSize 5 = 19” up to 22” (or 48 to 56cm)\nSize 6 = 22” up to 25” (or 56 to 64cm)\nSize 7 = 25” up to 28” (or 64 to 71cm)\nSize 8 = 28” and over (or 71cm +)\n\nExample: If you bring one-size 5 koi = 5 points\, and two-size 4 koi = 8 pts\, and three size 3 koi = 9 points. These six fish would sum up to 5+8+9 = 22 points. \n\nThe show guideline for tank capacity is 30 points – and not to exceed 8 koi per tank to facilitate judging and viewing.\nIf during benching\, your fish load is determined too great for the tanks reserved; we will move some of your fish into another tank (if available) and charge the standard tank fee.\n\nOnce you have determined your tank requirements\, please make your tank reservations and payments through our website at dallaskoikichi.org.  Register & pay soon\, as we’re predicting a complete sell out of available tank space this year. \nDeadline for tank reservations will be Monday\, May 12\, 2025. \nWhile online payment is preferred (www.dallaskoikichi.org) – we will accept checks payable to Dallas Koi Kichi Group (DKK) and deliver/mail to Dallas Koi Kichi Group (DKK)\, c/o Michael Moffitt\, Treasurer\, 1209 Southwood Blvd.\, Arlington TX 76013. \nFor the safety and health of your fish\, DO NOT FEED THEM FOR AT LEAST 7 DAYS PRIOR TO THE SHOW. Fish with undigested food require more oxygen\, excrete contaminants into the water\, and are more easily stressed. \nFish will be monitored routinely for problems. Show tank water will be tested for ammonia as needed. All koi show tanks will be covered with netting except during the actual judging and viewing times. 24-hour koi security will also be provided. \nCompetitors release Dallas Koi Kichi Group\, Aquashella Expo\, and Dallas Market Hall from all liabilities for damages\, injuries\, or losses during this event. \n2025 Koi Show Rules and Regulations \n\nKoi registration check-in is from 1pm to 6pm on Friday.

The owner affirms on the check-in form that that to the best of their knowledge\, their fish are disease\, parasite\, and KHV free.\nAll fish shown must be the personal and private property of the competitor/registrant. This is a hobbyist show and therefore persons deriving significant income from selling fish will not be allowed to show.\nBenching: Prior to judging\, all fish will be measured\, classified\, photographed\, and examined by the show benching committee. The judges may forgive temporary injuries (ex: minor transport injuries).  Fish deemed by the benching committee to show signs of disease\, significant injury or deformity WILL NOT be allowed in the show.\nOwners must provide a koi bowl/tub and suitable koi net for each koi tank used.
