Beni Hanna Nishikigoi
UnclaimedKoi breeder in Carneys Point, New Jersey
Beni Hanna Nishikigoi is a New Jersey koi breeding operation founded in 2017 by koi geneticist Mat McCann on the site of the former Quality Koi Company, which closed in 2016. The farm breeds its own American-bred koi lines alongside imported Japanese stock, describing its approach as genetics-first rather than tied to country of origin, and ships smaller koi overnight while larger fish move via air cargo. It is not affiliated with the original Quality Koi Company beyond sharing the same New Jersey property.

Community reputation
Beni Hanna carries a strong general rating (4.9 stars across 29 reviews on Birdeye) with customers describing the farm as professional and well-stocked with helpful, friendly owners. Separately, a koiphen thread about KHV disease reporting mentioned Beni Hanna; several forum members felt the thread singled out the farm unfairly, noting other dealers face the same disease-reporting challenges without being named. That thread reflects a debate over community disease-reporting norms rather than a substantiated complaint against the farm's fish health.
