Like most Koi dealers, we started out as enthusiastic Koi hobbyists. Our passion grew and evolved and we soon completed the OATA (Ornamental Aquatic Trade Association) courses. After this, we went on to study at the leading Aquatics and Fish Management College (Sparsholt College). This enabled us to improve the depth and breadth of our knowledge in fish biology, fish health, water quality and filtration systems (life support systems).
We are now the sole southern agent for high quality Japanese Ogata Koi and are proud to welcome you into our shop.

All of the Koi we sell at Icklesham Koi are hand selected and imported from The Ogata Koi Farm, in Fukuoka, Japan. They are subject to stringent quarantine procedures, which include heat ramping in addition to regular inspection and health checks. Customers can be confident that the Koi bought from us are healthy and disease free! This is a lifetime passion, so you can be sure to receive an impeccable service, that supports you, the customer, both during and after the sale has been made.
Rother District Council are responsible for issuing our licence. Over the years regulations have changed significantly, to ensure that retail outlets have the necessary documented procedures in place to ensure the welfare of livestock which we fully support, this has been long overdue. We are also subject to stringent checks by the authorities and only when the authorities are satisfied that all of the criteria are met will they issue a license. We are proud to have been presented with a 5 out of 5 top star rating for our business.
