Nine years ago, when we were looking for a reputable suppier of koi and pond fish, we chose Blue Ridge Fish Hatchery.

Randy, Rick and their crew, from the office to the ponds, made that choice easy. Our store has been selling pond fish and koi for over 35 years. We found the quality and selection were top-notch; everything we were looking for. We look forward to many more years of doing business with Blue Ridge Fish Hatchery.

We consistantly have almost zero loss in shipping and acclimating our fish. Our customers constantly compliment us on the health, quality, variety and color of our fish. They all come from Blue Ridge. The staff is always helpful, friendly and efficient.

Blue Ridge Fish Hatchery is one of the most professional companies in the industry. We have developed a long term relationship (10 yrs+) based on trust and integrity.

I have personally visited the various farms and hatcheries to hand pick high quality and special koi. The operation is efficient and clean.

A high standard of quarantine and health management are always in practice. I highly recommend Blue Ridge Fish Hatchery as a source of koi and goldfish. They are honest and helpful.

Blue Ridge Fish Hatchery, Inc plays an important role in our success at Nelson Water Gardens and Nursery by providing us with outstandingly healthy and beautiful goldfish and koi. Blue Ridge’s butterfly koi are second to none, and their sarasa comets set the domestic standard.

For twelve years Nelson’s has relied on Randy and Rick to only ship quality fish. This saves us from extensive and expensive quarantines, and gives us the confidence to know we are providing our customers with the best fish (pets) for their water garden or koi pond.

The office staff is professional and a pleasure to work with – They’re just darn nice people. Blue Ridge’s willingness and ability to ship Monday through Friday has helped us meet our customer’s expectations of having lots of fish to choose from whenever they visit us. It is not unusual for us to get two shipments in a week to keep our customers happy.

Another great product from Blue Ridge is their pelletized food. We have kept our customer’s fish happy by selling nearly three tons of it in 2008! Thank you: Randy, Rick, and crew for your great service, quality product, and friendly partnership in our success.

Extensive research and a recommendation from Koi-Vet, Dr. Eric Johnson, led me to Blue Ridge Fish Hatchery. I visited Blue Ridge and recieved a tour of the mud ponds, the distribution, and met with the entire staff. I was very impressed with the operation.

As a result we started purchasing fish and food and have never looked back. It's the quality of the product, the attention to detail along with personal service I receive from Randy and Rick that makes us a good match. We appreciate all the help we receive from Blue Ridge Fish Hatchery and value our relationship.

At Springdale, we have been buying Blue Ridge fish for many years.  We have consistently gotten great fish in good health from Randy and his staff.  They have always taken care of us in a timely and professional manner.  What I like most is the ability to call and talk to employees who are not only knowledgeable but friendly. 

The goldfish they produce are beautifully colored with good body shape. Their sizing is consistent and generous. Their shubunkins are really nicely colored, with good variety. Their koi are nice, our favorites being the butterfly koi.

These guys have been around for a long time and have demonstrated their ability to take care of us in many different ways. I would not hesitate to recommend them.
