    Colour change or something sinister?

    I believe the black on the koi is just a colour change as it’s happening slowly and the koi is eating and behaving fine. However, just to be certain, I’d like other people’s opinions. I have looked online at possible diseases and none look like this.

    Butterfly fish appearance geneal

    General opinions. Does anyone else’s butterfly Koi look like a wise old Japanese man comparable to Nagaoka Gaishi? or, is it just mine. Perhaps a little special?

    Is This Normal?

    I have had this koi fish for over a year now and he always does these "rolls" but I couldn't seem to capture him doing them until today and I'm just wondering if this is normal because I haven't seen any other fish on the Internet do this kind of it.

    What Are They?

    A women in my area is selling Pond Fish and she included this picture. I'm not sure what they are... She said they were raised with Koi's (so they're not Koi's I'm guessing). Maybe just large goldfish?
