"the legend goes that if a koi gets to the top of that waterfall thingy, it will turn into a dragon.. so an upwards koi is good luck.."

the koi doesnt have to turn into a dragon.. after the waterfall resides the dragons pond, after overcoming adversity and making it all the way to the dragons pond, the koi is then granted one wish.. where he can become anything, a dragon is just one of those things.. he could choose something else if he wants.

did you know it's extremely bad luck to have a koi fish tattooed facing down?

the legend goes that if a koi gets to the top of that waterfall thingy, it will turn into a dragon.. so an upwards koi is good luck..

i was once told a story of a guy getting a downward facing koi who has had extremely bad luck since.. maybe the up koi will balance this one out..

i like this one
