Geocache Description:

Located in the heart of Kuruman

The eye is the biggest natural fountain in the Southern hemisphere according to the available information.

The fish in the Eye are mostly Gold fish, Carp, Barber and Blue Carper populations. An endangered species of Cichlid fish, the Pseudocrenilabras Philander also made this wonder fountain their breeding ground.
