So I'm setting up my breeding ideas and fishes and was wondering what you think of a few of these fish for future breeding, I don't have a lot of matching females yet, that I'm working on yet :LOL:

I love this one, his fins aren't the best due to past damage at some point, but when you pay 2.50 at petco for a HM, you don't expect the best in quality fin care, I suppose.






And hints, tips, advice? :)

thanks,

Jason

Rob. you miss this one! :lolo:

This fish is not a bad LPS bought fish but it would make a poor breeder. The body has nice shape but the color would be hard to place in a exisisting class. Dorsal is nice size but has poor shape. Anal fin is nice and full but too long!! Caudal (from what I can see through the damage) has a nice spread but has rounded edges. Rays are good split at 8 ray but are very crooked. The cello is an indicator of marble and it would be very hard to find a suitable mate for. I highly suggest you place this fish on the pet rack and not breed him. It is always a bad idea to breed a fish that has no genetic background. Would I use this fish to make a HM line? No! I rate this fish a 2.5 out of a possible score of 10.
