    By far, the nicest Koi angels that I've seen are from www.angelsplus.com.

    Steve Rybecki is probably one of the best angel breeders in the US. He's developed a koi strain that has a lot of orange coverage, which is hard to do!

    I've ordered fish from him and they are top notch.

    Gary,
    Are you looking for a spawning pair or a bunch of fry?

    Check out www.simplyangelfish.com Sometimes the members have a few for sale. I have some, but it will be another three weeks before my next batch will be ready.

    I don't consider what Mellow aquatics sells to be koi. Sure they're biologically koi, but I think that a proper koi should have orange, black AND white. It's just a personal preference. Besides $40+ for a quarter sized angelfish...I'll take a discus instead thanks! Or you can pick up a koi pair for a mere $950!!!! I honestly don't know how he can stay in business with those prices. I have other thoughts that many others share as well, but there is no need to post them here.

    Both Steve and Lori have excellent stock...I have some from both of them. You can't go wrong with either of those choices.

    I just saw that you're in NY. I'm not sure how close it is but Angels Plus is in Oleans.

    Olean, NY is only a few hours drive for me. COOL!!!

    It's great to have a top breeder right in your own backyard ;D I'm going to pay him a visit.

    Little bit of a bummer.

    I e-mailed Steve and while he'll let you come to his place it's to pick up fish ONLY to save on shipping. No picking out your own fish and no tours through his hatchery :-[

    Gary,
    I was about to post that and let you know. I just found out last night.

    Apparently he won't let anyone into his hatchery....it's a little odd if you ask me. If I had known that before I bought my fish I may have changed my mind. Something just isn't right about that.
