Did you know the koi is a carp?

Yes.

Did you know the koi have teeth back in their throat for crushing things
like snail shells and other small shellfish they dig up from the bottom?

Yes.

If you knew that you knew their natural habitat is mud bottom even
though most koi keepers don't want their fish referred to as bottom
feeders, that is what they are.

Yes.

Hindsight being 20/20 I can see my question was pretty stupid.
