Introducing: The Legend of the Koi Series

Take advantage of the Koi's success and good fortune today.

In Japanese folklore, the Koi fish represents the overcoming of obstacles, because the Koi fish travels up the Yellow River and when it comes to the end of the river it transforms into the dragon; thus overcoming the adversity represented by the strong river to fulfill its own destiny.

The Legend of the Rainbow River
Japanese legend has it that every year thousands of Koi, a courageous, strong, and dedicated fish, make a perilous and difficult journey up the Rainbow River. Out of perhaps a million Koi, only once in many years, one Koi is dedicated and strong enough to swim all the way to the head of the river, known as "The Dragon Gate" (or "The Rainbow Gate"). Against all odds he reaches the head of the River and leaps from the water, and is then transformed into a full fledged dragon.
In general Koi are associated with good luck.
