Valsa George Date: 4/12/2023 10:02:00 PM It is a beautiful fish and easy to bring up in pools and aquariums. I have it in my aquarium. We call it 'carp'. Beautiful haiku dear Tom.

Maria Williams Date: 4/18/2018 9:41:00 AM A colorful Haiku Tom. When we were in Hawaii last month I used to watch these colorful fish in the many ponds around the Hotel resort complex. Fascinating to watch but not as colorful as your picture. They were a gift to The Hilton by the Japanese Emperor years ago and are very valuable...All the best for the contest ~Hugs ...Maria :) Login to Reply Tom Cunningham Date: 4/18/2018 10:32:00 AM Thanks Maria, they are indeed beautiful fish and as you say very relaxing to watch .
