Koi Fish Is 226 Years Old

Two hundred and twenty-six years I am told.
Is how many years this koi fish is old.
But who has kept track?
How far could they go back?
I demand an explanation, big and bold.

Terry Flood Date: 6/15/2021 4:22:00 PM Good write, Caren. As for the facts, fifty is a great age for a carp. One hundred aint gonna happen. I’ve been ‘fishy’ since I won a goldfish at a fair when I was nine (and that was months ago). The Japanese like to credit Koi with all kinds of mysticism... but they’re just specially bred, coloured carp. Well... you did ask. ;-) Terry Login to Reply Caren Krutsinger Date: 6/16/2021 8:14:00 AM I saw this in a world book encyclopedia Terry. Does not mean it is true, but....
