Another lovely fish Shannon bred.

My new boy!









Isn't he beautiful! Oh and by the way, his hatch date was 7/11/07, so he's only 11 weeks old.
+++++++++
This is his Daddy that she bought from me.




Mommy, also from me but from my Old Man line. Yeah, Shannon, I figured it out in thinking back. That female, seeing she is HM and comparing the photos I'd taken before I sent the fish to you, had to have been one of my Old Man's girls.

This is a pic of her barely past juvie.

This is his grandmother; I still have her. The old man was nearly three when he died and I breed him to this girl when he was 2 1/2 years old resulting in one of the nicest spawns I've ever had.


This photo was just taken of her yesterday. (She was bred by Surat.)

Here's the Old Man's younger photo.



Hey Belle. If you think his color looks familiar compare his looks to Diamond Boy you have. His grandmother is spawn sister to Diamond, Diamond Boy's father. Which also means that your newest old man kids are cousins to Diamond Boy.

Which means to you Shannon; that your kids carry not only HMPK but also DT.

It's really interesting how we've tied all these lines together that we're working on isn't it?

Oh, I knew that Diamond Boys father was a spawnmate to the mother of the Old Mans last spawn, That was one of the reasons I got him, lol.
It is nice seeing that someone else has a different branch of that tree though.

How did that spawn with them turn out? Didn't you tell me there were fry?
^_^

No, there were eggs, but he munched, and since then they have taken turns being putz'.
Wilde Magik munched as well, and Jen's little wench did a number on Murphy. I don't blame him, it is the little platinum demons she sent me. Rick can't even handle them, and now I have to wonder if it was one of those tiny she devils that killed Ti Phile instead of whatever female I had been blaming.

Hey, I had been meaning to ask you.. why was your warning level at 100%? Was someone playing with you?

She devils, eh? I know about them. ;)

Wow that is a beautious fish! He just seems to flow from fin to fin!

I never noticed, I guess, there was no reason to warn me, and there is a lot you have to do to GET a warning set.
You can't just accidentally give someone a warning.
I don't care, it was fixed, no problem, and Diamond Boy and Fancy Girl are trying to spawn right now.
Of course, it WOULD be a day when I have 6 kids in my house...

I fixed it! :P


SPAWN SPAWN SPAWN My lovlies! :wub:

Thanks Nate! I know, I adore him. I almost feel as if I got the Old Man back.

I know the feeling, I have this one boy, and he looks like Manny!! I see him, and it is my boo all over again.,

I know I am going to be interesting in these fish, like I said, another branch of the same tree, lol.

Cool so we all have some of these lines.. I was thinking Dt somewhere cause the one I was thinking RTPK which he still has not finned out yet? His fins are nuts tons of branching. I need to breed him like this month before he can't breed because of them fins which is cool. OK so is that male from a different line then? I love these guys. I have drooled over these red golds since the susthasin's came out by bettaboy. I have like 5 girls and 3 males still from that small spawn they all pulled out of swim bladder and
I got all my cultures today so no more egg for me. so in a couple months time if anyone needs Walter worms or microworms vinegar eels or Grindal Worms plus I am getting banana worms what the heck my babies will have food..lol...

LOL Sounds good though Shannon. Then I'll have a source for cultures.
;)
Yes, the PK male is from a different line but a related line just the same. The originals were all bred by the same man in Thailand who is an old friend of mine and never sells online or in the public. Only to his friends. I've known him for like 20 years. Even though someone recently tried to fool me into thinking they were him to scam me, I finally got in touch with him again after a two year absence. Seems a money hungry nephew or something was trying to use his name and contact his list of friends and scam them. :(
But, good ole Sher with my PI background caught on and warned everyone before anyone really lost any big amounts of money. ;)
