definitely shows up in the pond! I got a platinum version this spring and in time, it should be the yin to Buki's yang! Both are butterflies!

:D

This makes me REALLY wish I could have koi...Absolutely stunning! It must be hypnotizing to watch him swim under the lights at night...Wow, the color is spectacular!

maybe you could get just ONE butterfly koi, not overfeed, and it would be fine in your pond, Ruby! Then you'd have both rich and poor man's koi! Glad you like! I don't have the pond lights anymore so make do with daylight spectacularness! And truth to tell, at night, the fish were like silhouettes when they'd cross in front, so was more a shadow show, ya know? (geez, didn't mean to rhyme THAT much!!)

:o :-P :cool:
