A Halloween colored dream
came swimming beyond scream
and then a cruel green witch flew by
if you know what i mean

One of our pet Koi Angelfish:
The photo brought back memories of my husband’s koi pond years ago. Thank you.
How nice, CC! Glad it brought back fond memories! π
The color is beautiful and very vibrant! π
Thanks, Marcela! They sure look awesome in real life. π
I didn’t know there were Koi Angelfish – this one is very pretty.
Pet shops don’t usually sell nice varieties such as this. I got this one at a big Tropical fish auction in Champagne, Illinois a while back, for a very reasonable price. Got some Pinoy Angelfish too, which are maybe even nicer. I’ve had Angelfish for decades. π
They are beautiful to watch – my dentist used to have a tank in his waiting room and it was a very large tank and I enjoyed watching his tropical fish each time I went there – probably they were used to calm patients before a visit. He developed a neurological disease and couldn’t stand up anymore so sold his practice and just teaches now. The dentist who bought his practice no longer had the fish; perhaps the dentist took them home. My current dentist has video games in his waiting room and a wide-screen TV. I would rather look at fish. That Angel Fish iss a beauty..
You should get a nice sized aquarium and get some of your own. When a fish dies, out of many, it’s not such a terrible thing (like with mammals/birds). It’s a very rewarding, educational, and relaxing hobby… especially in winter!
Great verse and Halloween themed fishπ
Thanks, and yes, Belinda, i thought they were perfect for Halloween! π
Spectacular angelfish! And photograph! Iβve had angelfish at one time, but Iβve never seen one like this! π
Like i said to Linda, above, i’ve kept Angelfish for decades. All kinds of really nice varieties these days; i especially like the Phillippine Blues, the Pinoys, and the Fire Red Koi types. π
Beautiful koi!
Thanks, Dorinda! (Koi Angelfish) π
Was that the fish or you telling me I left off angelfish? LOL

Like some of your other commenters, I had no idea there was a koi angelfish. It is beautiful, and halloweenish in the extreme!
Yes, there are some very nice Angelfish types, these days, that one can get from some very dedicated breeders. Other very nice varieties include the Philippine Blue Angels and the Pinoy Angels. I recently obtained some Pinoy Angels and their color and personality are fantastic.
