Introduction
We are both members of the British Koi Keepers' Society (BKKS) and of the ZNA. We live in the north of England and have been keeping koi for over 18+ years. As well as looking after koi we both enjoy the hobby in different ways. Kate is a BKKS Judge (JSC Chairman) and a ZNA Locally Certified Judge. Kate has judged koi in the UK for some 10+ years and has also judged shows in the USA, Holland and Japan.. Kate gives talks on koi appreciation and classification and has published many articles in the koi magazines. Andrew is interested in Koi Photography and has photographed koi at shows for many years. Examples of his work can be seen in the BKKS, Koi Carp magazines and on this page.

Kate and Andrew have published many Articles on Koi topics. They are listed in chronological order. If you wish to have a copy, I have linked this site to the publishers, so that you may contact them for any back copies.

We have listed the Koi Web Sites that we have found to be of interest.
Since Kate and I are scientists, Kate's specialty fields are Clinical Biochemistry, Haematology, Immunology and Zoology (Kate) and Andrew's are Clinical Biochemistry and Physiology & Biochemistry. Now and then we thought we would scan the Internet looking for interesting compounds and give our readers some facts. Science Page
Planning a trip to the UK or Europe , take in a koi show.
