Question
i saw an orange fish in a tank of ghost koi and asked if it was a ghost koi and they said yes but thing is ive never seen a completely orange ghost koi before in any shops or over the internet before is this unsual and could it be worth anything in the future

Answer
By definition, ghost koi are a mix of a platinum ogon koi and a common river carp.  They are almost always gray/black/blah colored.  I would not call an orange koi a ghost koi but I don't know if one resulted from the above breeding if it could be techincally called a ghost koi or not.  It would not be worth more than any other orange koi but I'm sure he's pretty!  Good luck!
