This article presents information about Angelfish Express Inc., a breeding center, wholesale and retail seller of angelfish in Willoughby, Ohio. The company is owned by Dennis McIntire and Barb Bemus. The Eastlake couple--Bemus, a longtime saleswoman in the food, pest control and phone directory industries, and McIntire, a 25-year breeder--raise and sell hardy angelfish. The species is an easily maintained, desirable aquatic pet, they said. The business, launched in 2000, is growing with the help of a personal investment of more than $20,000, lots of sweat equity, and ongoing education and customer relations. Annually, the staff raises 360,000 angelfish. |
