These just-unveiled glow-under-UV angelfish could go on sale in 2012. They were created at the Institute of Cellular and Organismic Biology in Taipei, Taiwan, along with similarly modified convict cichlids.
The first genetically modified pet to go on sale was a fluorescent medaka, or rice fish, which was launched in Taiwan in 2003. It was soon followed by the "GloFish", a fluorescent zebrafish sold in many countries, including the US. Both were spin-offs from basic research, rather than being created specifically for the pet trade.
