I like the idea of a Nature color set - "Eco" has previously been
proposed, and it goes with EcoFluxx

Brown (opaque)  - For ground, earth
Forest green (darker than the existing green) - For trees
Smoke (transparent grey or black, depending) - for stone
Magenta - for tropical fish, or flowers - but only because it's
          supposedly a required color; I'd use lavendar (lighter than
          the existing purple) for flowers otherwise.

If we used Lavendar, I'd include a blood-red (darker than the existing
red), for blood/animals, as the fifth color. With Magenta in there, I
can't come up with a fifth color that I like for this set.

I'd save the Magenta/Hot Pink for the next set, which would be the true
"Loco" set, and I'd load THAT one up with NEON or FLUORESCENT colors.
