Are Mirror Carp a different species of Carp or just different looking Carp?

Same species, just a different scale pattern (mutation?)

Yep, they are the same species... some genetic mutation.
Hey, I caught my first mirror carp ever last season from scumfoot! Maybe we will see some on the day of the derby.
Man, I sure do love mirror carp. Even though they are just carp, something about them....
I found a place last year with a few mirrors, and managed one on the flyrod. I would like to see just how many mirrors there are in this area
