When the black koi fish is young, he looks chubby and tended to close to you.

    Right now he grow up, he has a sense of territory awareness, everytime you call him, instead immediately flying over he now patrols the pool then come to you with several detours like attempts of security ensure. After that, he close to you.

    I know the food can domesticate this little creature and proved it, it would allow you to touch, caress its belly. I know it`s very funny, but that against its nature by birth. So i gave it up. I keep feeding and the intimacy still there.

   If i am not sure how to be close to him, then let him to do it, now it will be in a manner of head up tail down and belly exposure to greet me and suck my finger several times as his indicator for the food feeding. After be full, he choose to swim around you back and forth for a long while it likes keeping you accompany.

    I love this black koi fish due to i have learned how to respect individual characteristic or even more it represents if you turn warm to the world, the world will return it also.
