I remember seeing that on Pinterest. It is pretty. But not a scale pattern that would look good on all colors/patterns. I thing the coloring on this one is what makes it “pop”.Image found on Pinterest. Not mine.
This is a well bred one (but not show quality. He has a kink in his tail)

Interesting question. Maybe.Wouldn't the scales going in different ways put the fish at a disadvantage? My thinking is that each time the scales go in a different direction there would be a weak spot where they change. Does anyone agree or disagree?
