Rocky??

[Tamianth]

So here's a picture of Rocky and I'm still wondering just what he is now...

Sorry about the net reflection,lol! And no, he does not have a warped/defprmed gill plate,lol! I just managed to catch him as he turned and has it open as well...

[Tamianth]

This one is from last summer and shows the gold:

Hmmm, well, I'm just curiouse myself too. The closest description I could find was ghost fish...... Hard to see unless the sun hits those gold scales,lol! :grin:

[Dave in Innisfil]

We have mystery fish too, but at least I know the origin. I imagine you're sure it's a koi, but sure looks like this year's largemouth bass spawn to me. But I'm still a novice and until this spring didn't know a koi from a comet.

[Jackie Ramo]

Smith said it looked like a bass and I'm inclined to agree but it is definately koi. Lost is bass look now but too fast to catch to see. I have a half dozen black ones though that evenin the sunlight you can't see them, just the pellet moving in the water while they nibble on it.

[Tamianth]

Yeah, if I didn't know the parents and the fact he has barbels.. !rofl

[Merlin]

Thanks for the reminder :frisbee: I have some that I transfred to the Boat pond, that look just like those. I must check how they are doing. :-)

[Tamianth]

Just be nice to know what they are! :lol: I keep calling Rocky a Ghost Fish since he is hard to see.

[Jackie Ramo]

I call all the dark ones chagoi :roll:

[kgt3]

Someone find Luke........I'm sure that he kind sort these ID's out.

[Jackie Ramo]

Luke has no time for pond mutts. Now Keifer you why don't tell us what they are? Actually mine are pond mutts :lol:

Gin Kabuto/Ginbo (aka Ghost Koi, Gold Helmet, Devil Fish, Demon Fish) darkish blackish fish, scales have silver trimmings, murky/no distinct body patterning, head may have semi oval bright pattern/hoe pattern,

Devil fish seems to suit my ugly tobi fish

[Tamianth]

!rofl Yes, the movie Deuce Bigalow comes to mind... the first scene with the "killer Koi" where he say's its the most dangerouse of all..

:lol: :twisted:

[Jackie Ramo]

Missed that movie, didn't know there was a killer koi scene!!!

[GregBickal]

Id call it a chagoi. Looks just like a goldfish fry.

[Tamianth]

Well, Chagoi seems to be the consensus so far,lol!
