Koi Fish

Koi fish symbolism came from the Chinese legend of the Dragon gate where the Koi triumphantly swam up a waterfall and transformed to a dragon afterward. Koi stands for good fortune, prosperity and good luck. This comes from the Chinese belief that seven gold Koi will bring good luck to the household and the dragon gate legend itself. For the Chinese, Koi symbolises success just like when the Koi reached the top of the waterfall and became a dragon.
