Im thinking about doing just that. Have a replica made. Don't know if they would get the colors right though. My Bream are oddly colored. With purples, blues, gold, orange, yellow.
They are gorgeous, but they look different in color from the copper nose I usually see on the internet. None of them are really the same color either. Some of my bream have bright yellow on the bellies, then some are like a lavender or purple.

I don't know what happened in my pond but it seems like there has been some cross breeding, but the results are some darn good looking fish......and they are big. Lots of really big bream in there and my bass have taken off too. I have some really nice bass. There's a substantial number of bass in there that are monsters. I see them when I feed in the afternoons. There are about 10 or so (big bass) that come up and they are huge fish. Well over 4 pounds. Occasionally one will hit a smaller bream and knock him 3 or 4 feet out of the water and it's usually a massive explosion on the water.

It's weird. When this happens all the fish stop feeding for a few seconds and then they go back to boiling the water. I have been feeding these fish 200 pounds of food per month for a long time.
