hi kemeer, glad u r satisfied wit the ultra L.. the HI of koi depends on:- 1. genetic ( some tategoi udah mature baru tah bright HI nya, esp for female.. male koi usually brighter since young, but usually finished or flatline koi will give u bright hi without any colour food) 2. koi food ( koi food containing spirulina is better as it wont spoil the white part of koi, i would suggest u to use brilliant FDX, paste food, it keep up the hi n not spoil the white as it contain, 5% chitosan klu brilliant LDX hanya 3% chitosan,but if u want strong colour enhance pakai Hikari spirulina, but usually the head of koi jadi kuning) 3. water quality ( changing too much water will damage the hi due to stress, PH lower than 7 usually contribute to better HI) 4. spawning (from my xperience, after my koi lay eggs its hi usually fade a bit..) beside all these, to brighten the hi usually takes time and a lots of colour food, dont xpect to brighten the colour by simply feeding a few kilo of colour food goood luckk
