FROM KEN KENNEDY....

The first export of my Pinoy, Paraiba and other angelfish varieties I developed in the Philippines was to the USA in August 2008. David Labell of Angelfish USA Inc. was among those who bought from that shipment.

In July 2009 I received a private message at The World Angelfish Forum from djl410, entitled "I owe you BIG TIME".

This is the message that was sent:
***************
Ken,

I just want to say THANKS for everything that you have done. You have put my business on the map! My sales have increased 500% because of you! Your fish are absolutely AMAZING. If there is ANYTHING AT ALL I can do for you, Please don't hesitate to ask. I OWE YOU BIG TIME! The traffic to my site has increased to 1000+ visitors per day. So much that I have to update my website with all new software. It's 1/2 way there now and hopefully will be done before my trip to China next week. You have been "the pot of gold" to me. I really can not thank you enough! So, please, anything at all, just ask! I now, must find a warehouse with a retail store front. This has been my life's dream, and it looks like it will come true very soon. THANK YOU THANK YOU

THANK YOU!!

David
***************

My reply was "I have little to do with it. There are many others who also bought angels from me so I really did nothing special for you. Someone else did something special for you!"

In February 2010, at The World Angelfish Forum, in a reply to a trademark question I mentioned about royalty

(http://www.angelfishkisses.com/forum/showthread.php?p=44720#post44720)

"Given the gene..., I have No intention of trademarking it. This had been discussed already about 3 years ago in another forum.

The start of this Platinum journey was never planned. I actually was not interested in the Platinum... my sister bought some even after i told her not to. I suppose all this was meant to happen; a blessing from God which i can not keep soley for my gain. As God has blessed me with it, I would like others to be blessed by it as well. I'd be very delighted though if someone who will gain much financially from the angels I developed would be so kind to give me royalty, willingly given. Pleeease!

It was just wishful thinking that someone would give me royalty. I jokingly pleaded but I was not expecting. But the unexpected happened. August 4, 2010 in David's email he said "You can start earning some income from your hard work...I'm going to include some kind of royalty for you."

David is not obliged to give me any royalty as he owes me nothing so I am very greatfull for the gesture. Thanks David!

By the way, David was the one who suggested the replacement placeholder gene name Philippine Blue for the blue angelfish mutant phenotype; with genetic code: pb.

I hope those wanting to acquire Pinoy, Paraiba and other angelfish varieties will get them from Angelfish USA. Indirectly, you will be financially supporting my angelfish development/breeding projects. Thanks!

Glory to God!

Angelfish Steward
