The Koi is strong enough to swim against the current up stream this can mean two things:
The Koi fish is pure resolve - The Koi fish swimming upstream can be interpreted as showing determination because of the fact that the Koi does not "go with the flow". In many ways this shows how to succeed in adversity and challenge even though life is a challenge.
Strength in time of adversity - The koi fish can also symbolize the strenth to go on even with big obstacles in front of us. Even when it seems we are being swept backwards we keep on going forward and making progress.
In the short story Koi-san by Mukoda Kuniko. it is said that the koi means love and friendship.
