Check this item out on ebay: Sunglasses for your koi! 8)

Has anyone here ever used them or heard of them?

Wouldn't they do damage to the koi?

You can tell by the picture that they are drawn on....could you imagine the stress on the poor fish to catch them, then put shades on them?!

 

[koimom]

You and I can maybe tell they're drawn on, but at least one poor fool has already bid on them!

You can sell anything on eBay It's amazing the things people will buy

I wish I could get the name of that person...I could probably sell them a nice little fishy skirt...I mean when was the last time you went out in the blinding sun without any clothes. I could be doing their fish a favor! LOL!!!!
An idiot's born every minute, and I guess at some point they all find their way to ebay.....

Couldn't resist--wrote the following to them:

You have got to be kidding; they look drawn on--and wouldn't it horribly stress the koi to capture them and put them on, not to mention damage their scales irreparably?

Here's their reply to me: (I really enjoy the p.s.)
We are not kidding.

We have several koi and thousands of satisfied customers so far.

It does not stress the fish at all, having them fitted is no worse than them having a hook in their mouth if an angler was catching them though we recommend barbless hooks.

If you would to purchase a pair please contact us.

PS the picture looks drawn on because the fish wouldn't stay still for the picture, it was too exited about how cool it looked in its new shades...
