Ok after reading MUMU's post about his royals haveing red, It got me thinking in the last month Prince my royal blue marble fins have turned this beuatiful pastel pink color........but :mellow: that got me thinking does that mean he has red in him? it has to right? :unsure: I know the parents were royal blue marble and royal blue butterfly. what do you guys think? I'm fine with him being a fancy marble in fact I like it better.

Could you get an updated picture of him???

Yeah, a pic please.

But I think you're just talking about the white looking pink. This happens with white, even with opaque. It's one of the things I DON'T like as I hate pink for the most part. But that doesn't mean he has red at all.

hey guys I will get a picture , but sherry might be right it is just the white part that looks pink, it just the fins at the base have a more pastel blue spread and the white part has turned a pastel pink, but he is in a ten gallon with his baby fry still so I t might be hard to get a good pic the water has IAL in it. i'm sure that makes it look more pink to me. anywasy its not a big deal i was just curious. aslo He annoying to his babies That want me to take him out so bad, all he does is chase them around swallow them and then spit them out, there liek we get leave us alone, But he is a GREAT daddy he has not eaten any yet :D its been about three weeks, How long should I leave him in there?

Sorry for all the grammar errors in the above post, it won't let me edit it. its late I'm tired. :(

ok so is this just normal for them to get this pink coloring? he is also in IAL colored water at the time , I think it made them look a little more pink.

Those are not red wash. ^_^
You need to keep changing fresh water to avoiding the pink in the fins. Am I right? ^_^

I had that happen to my Turquoise BF HM. The white part of his fins turned pink. I don't know what causes it, but he did get it as he got older, especially after I bred him(my female ALSO changed colors after I bred her.....I found out she had red wash :( ).
I don't know it is anything to worry about.

What Yeevs said. Nothing to worry over though.

thanks, everyone :Y

:WEL

He is doing his daddy duties, if you ask me.. the chasing and spitting.
I think he is mouthing them, and if any don't feel right, he eats them. It helps keep them on their toes, and keeps them from getting lazy, lol.
And apologizing for grammatical errors??
Have you SEEN some of MY posts???

:LOL: Bella, true these fry are not lazy thats for sure, he does keep them on there toes(fins) , its just hard to watch your heart sinks a little everytime, but I always wanted to try this method seems to be working out just fine. :D

AMEN! :lolo: :P
