Mystic Koi’s take
This is what we use on the benching table at Shinkokai shows. For quick checks at home a measuring board is faster, but for an honest length on a big fish, water and this tank win.

Questions we get about the measuring tank
How much water?
Just enough to float the fish upright — 3–4 inches. Use pond water so temperature matches.
