Fish Types Available

At The Fish Works, we have an extensive range of fish including Koi Carp, Goldfish and Native Fish.

Koi Carp

Koi have been selectively bred for hundreds of years in Japan, to produce a variety of fish which are stunning in colour vibrancy and elegance.
Amazing considering that they are brown in their natural form...

Koi prices vary greatly, and this is mainly due to 3 factors.. The colour vibrancy, markings and size.

Koi in Display pond

The colours displayed in a koi come from the parents, but the pattern of the markings is mostly random.

This means, that even if you bred two “champion koi” together, many of the offspring will have a scattered, speckled pattern, with only a select few having a few blotches of even, symmetrical, high contrast colours.

Although all fish are beautiful, this is how one makes the distinction of a quality koi..

We have koi to suit all budgets, starting at $5 for babies from good brood stocks, right through to large high grade fish.

Koi require a pond of at least 800 litres with a good quality pump and filter.

We stock top quality Koi Carp, carefully selected and bred by Bernard Lai, who has been breeding Koi for 20 years.
Varieties include, but are not limited to:
Kohaku, Sanke, Showa Sanshoku, Bekko, Utsuri-Mono, Kawarimono, Hikari-Moyomono, Asagi, Shusui, Koromo, Ogon, Kinginrin, Hariwaki Doitsu, Hi-Utsuri and Ki-Utsuri.
Visit our store and find different colour, sizes and varieties of Koi.

Butterfly Koi

We are one of the few places in Australia to stock the majestic butterfly koi. Butterfly koi have the long flowing tails and fins of some of the goldfish varieties, but have the same colours and patterns that people love in Japanese Koi carp.

Goldfish

Goldfish are great in most pond sizes, including water bowls. They are not aggressive, and can even be tamed after a while, as can most fish..
Look for fish with long fins and tails, with vibrant colour.
We have many types of goldfish, from your common comet goldfish, a hardy strain ideal for any sized fish pond, to fancy strains..
Goldfish varieties include:
Comets, Ranchu, Lionheads, Pearlscales, Black Moors, Shubunkins, Orandas etc.

Native Fish

Native fish are becoming increasingly popular, especially for the outside pond. We stock many species of Native fish, such as:
