Koi Fish

Can you keep koi fish in a fish bowl?

I plan on decorating my office and was wondering if I could keep koi fish in a fish bowl?
stupid question isn’t it? but I have NO EXPERIENCE with fish.

Definitely not. Koi can grow to 3 feet, and the myth that fish won’t outgrow their tanks is just that – a myth. Well, it’s partly true, because they will die before they can grow. Especially fish in the goldfish family – they are poop machines and foul up their water really quickly.
If you want a nice small office tank, go with a 5 gallon. There are lots of neat formats out there (ie cube-shaped tanks). Get a little filter (like the AZOO palm fitler), a small heater, some rocks and some plants, and get a nice Betta fish. Clean the water weekly (replace 30% of the water) and you will not be disapointed.

Some pictures, for hahas:
