This little guy I picked up at the FCB auction..........
He is a Red show plakat from Jacks lines.
He is a little over 2 1/2 months (i think that is what Jack said?).
I put him with one of my Red Cambo giant females.
He is being a very good daddy, didnt really know that he is supposed
to "mouth" the eggs to help the fry hatch but he is very attentive to the fry.
He is young and a first time dad so I will be watching this spawn closely.
This male will really improve my red line, I'm excited!
ya he doesnt like the camera...............

That is where I would place him, but he is really a transitional, somewhere between ASP, (Asymmetrical Show Plakat, the new name for the MSP) and the TSP, because if you look, he has a rounded, spadish tail. However he is multibranched, and the TSP should have no more than 4... (he looks 6-8)
One thing I will say, I would be sure to breed him into a female with some point to her anal, because his anal is trying to flatten out on you, and a ASP nees the sharp sloping anal fin.
