Pond owners love their koi, often giving them names and training their fish to eat right from their hand. At Paradise Ponds and Waterfalls, we treasure the benefits that koi and other pond fish provide you in their backyard pond environment. We need to make you aware that the U.S. koi industry is at risk. But there is good news you can help!

Injurious Species List
The Center for Invasive Species Prevention (CISP) has petitioned the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) to add 43 species of fish to the Injurious Species list. Included on the list is common carp, or koi. If these fish are added to the Injurious Species list, it will be illegal to transport them across state lines. Importation and production of koi will no longer be economically feasible. Koi retailers will likely lose their businesses and pond owners will no longer have access to the variety of koi they currently enjoy. In response, the National Aquaculture Association is formulating a plan to fight and oppose this regulation. Likewise, Aquascape is committed to raising awareness of this issue Your Help is Needed We hope you'll join our efforts by following the simple steps below.
