So... The carp (Common carp - Cyprinus carpio carpio L.) has quite small eyes, compared to its body size. What is more, they are short-sighted - they could see sharply only close objects. Despite of this they can orienting well, eg.: they can notice an intensively moving fisherman, who has different colour, than its environment.

Anyway, experiments have shown, that carps can see colours: they can distinguish red and yellow. I don't know anything about the relationship of other colours and carps.

How do common carp see?

Common carp have relatively good vision, adapted to their aquatic environment. They possess both rod and cone cells in their retinas, allowing them to see in low light conditions and detect colors. Their eyes are positioned on the sides of their heads, providing a wide field of view to spot predators and food. However, their vision is not as sharp as that of some other fish species, and they rely heavily on their other senses, such as taste and smell, to navigate their surroundings.
