1st spawn

Mandy its usually the bigger ones watch them close when you feed they are very fast on the nip lol. have fun!!!!

That last picture you posted up is exactly how my biggest one looks now - Im convinced it's a boy now, just the shape of the fins gives it away too. Some lovely colouring coming in there!

Ok I must have the duff ones!! Mine aint growing.................. Colouring up nicely though lol

Well I did take a fair few of the bigger one's! Just think I've got the problem of seperating them LOL

the males kinda morph into giants on a daily basis once you jar um Teri, dont worry they will grow then the housing probs begin, most of mine are taking atisons betta pellet now.

And this is the same fish that I posted a pic of on Wednesday, one of the biggest! it's amazing to see how quickly they actually grow, it's amazing! Im loving this, thank you so much for giving me that chance!

lookin good guys!

Giving me good practice for when I have babies hahaha - Well not me literally

Looking great and nice colour.

Well this oldest one I have here Im 99% sure is male! And the second biggest in the tank by the side of it female - She's a nice orangy colour on her fins. Reason I say m/f is that when the male saw the female, he flared and she showed stripes (vertically!) He is colouring up lovely, has a metallic blue sheen all over his body now!

And here's the little one today, turning into a nice brightly coloured male!

well aint he cute!

Awww what alittle cutie

thats the hardest thing.. seeing which develop into the most gorgeous fish then you have to give them to someone else

I know that feeling. I had promised to sell 25 of them for a friends wedding. That got reduced to 17 and then I bought back 6 that didn't go home with anybody. Sniff sniff! I wanted to watch them all grow up a little more but that's 11 of them I wont have to feed or find homes for.

I can imagine! And I bet it's always the one's with the personality too!

And some more pics of the babies I have here, growing really well now!

aww hun they're colouring up lovely your doin a good job

Have you set your new spawn up yet?

here 3 types of male from next weeks 10 i gotta take to shop another 20 jarred grrrrrrrr n more comin on



last ones my fave
prolly got 6 male types outa this spawn all very nice too, its making me rethink on breeding true type fish more and more, i like the luck of the draw thing and think with a little tweaking some crackers can be had,
other thing i noticed is the interest shops have in these lil mongrels, cheap n hardy i'm guessin.
So question is whats next for me lol
oh n talk about nightmare i caught two wrapped n spawning the other day in my comunity tank , i thought i had just added females grr! i managed to split them but not before the nest was full of eggs but i left those as food for the others as i have no intention of breeding these babies....

aww shadow i absolutely love that last one!!!!!!!! you've had some crackers from this spawn , was very successful eh well done chuck!!!! x
