Los estanques con peces son un universo reducido de la vida salvaje de los peces. Pero existen peces diseñados genéticamente para los estanques. Probablemente no sobrevivirían fuera de ellos. Representan esa parte de la naturaleza cultivada por el hombre para su propio placer de contemplación o por el gusto de coleccionarlos y cuidarlos. Nos parece un recurso interesante para mostrar cómo el hombre ha manipulado desde milenios las razas de animales para convertirlos a su gusto en objetos de colección por su belleza. Es un modo de estética que en Japón es llevado al límite con el Koi.
