Krull: A gentle fish


Krull,
A fish that everyone could love.
Who treated everyone with respect.
He liked to swim up to the top of the tank
and then to the bottom.
he never ate food when I watched
always a little bit shy.
took great pride in his beautiful ventral fin
his peacock coloured scales
and he was always my favourite anabantoid
thank goodness for his magnificent labyrinth
which allowed him to breath, directly from the surface

You'll be missed buddy.
