      Koi quiz - how much do you know?

      This is an old one, don't know if I remember the answers.

      If you want to play, send me a pm with your answers.
      Just a little something to exercise our brains.

      Don't post your answers, answer them all, write them down and pm me. I'll draw out of all of the correct ones and the winner gets a koi magnet.

      Not a race since some won't be on till tonight.


      1. What is it?
