That 3rd pic kinda does that big copper boy some justice. He has a really nice spread. I know, hard to get that perfect shot :) It also looks like them lil' steels are about ready to go to spawn, wooot!! I bred melano into the line about a year ago and these girls are the first signs of it I have seen so far. I have 3 girls here that almost have went all black in the fins and some on the lower body. Remember I told ya that copper guy was proven? Here are some pics of 2 of the fry he threw right before I sent him to you. Another nice male from him I thought was a fem 'till yesterday cropped up, a super nice green lace. I'll try to get some pics of him soon. I always miss my babies, lol! Anytime ya get a good side flare shot of that steel guy, I would love to see it :P
Ok, your copper guys babies. And he was crossed to one of my steel hmpk fems in that spawn.








:T

Those are great :WOU

I think they're gonna be really nice fish when they get older. They're still very young.

The copper's kids are shweet! :OLALALA Btw, I'm really happy with the fish. They all have awesome personalities. ^_^ I let them sit in the sun for a few minutes today. Sakda and Kiyoshi we're a little freaked out at first, but they settled down and took a nap in the sun. :D I don't think I've ever seen them so relaxed. :) The steels are going to be gorgeous when they're fully grown! :Ohlalala

OOooo! They're pretty! :wub:

Mmmm, they look very promising! Reminds me of the coppery kids I once had imported. I'm sure you paid less than I did for em! Steels are amazing too! :T :WOW:

here is the pic i promised of your copper guys latest and greatest son that was just removed from growout this week! i love this guy
