But that(in front of "K Coffee") is not original idea as art.
Original appered for art event in 2011 with over 1000 goldfishes
made by Kyoto art college group calling "kingyo-bu/goldfish club". (already not exist)

Also in 2013 another pro artist made similar one at Fukushima(EastNorth Japan).
(no related Yamato-Koriyama/already not exist)

(green top booth is so)

(note)
In summer seems under 100 fishes by not good water conditions.
(hot Sun make water hotter and will be green moss growing quickly)
In spring and fall seems about 500 fishes.
