  1. Mmmmmm evolution.... could be a touchy topic Dixon
  2. I have had previous adult fighters that had theirs eye pecked out and it died within minutes.... these 2 fry by all accounts were born with one eye, noticed a few days after hatching, yeah I have good eyesight!!!
  3. Oh yes, good point. As in no socket, just flesh over where the eye socket/eye should be.... guess is genetic then? Cheers.
  4. Recently discovered 2 of 10 c/t babies have one eye. The affected fry are slightly smaller but fit and healthy otherwise, eatting well and growing quickly. The other fry are fine and have 2 eyes. Does anyone know why this is likely to occur? I originally thought that it was prehaps some sort of injury during hatching or maybe a genetic issue? Your thoughts please
  5. :bounce: That's fantastic news Adodge.... can't wait to to see them. Yeah I thought he was a male.... few smaller ones being bossy so may still have more. Time will tell, I wait in anticipation. Thanks.
  6. Thanks Ian, is about 15 on the last count.
  7. It's time for another update, so here are the babies at 9weeks old. Still unsure of sex but this little one has longer fins, perhaps a male?
  8. Yeah a heated room would be the solution to many of our problems/worries.
  9. Welcome.... when will you treat us with some babies from your stunning fighter collection??
  10. Nah not yet..... will wait for pay day. Gourami's came out and were "playing" with the keyholes..... sooooo funny.
  11. See mine when you and Mrs come over today
  12. I concurr!!! Would love to try for a yellow crowntail male.... a ton of efforts and calculated breedings!! Look forward to the picy Adodge.
  13. Uuuummmmm maybe..... both Gabes yellow and my original yellow are from Hollywoods. My second yellow male was from Henderson Jansens/Animates, he breed with the yellow female... the offspring in the photos.
  14. Pardon my ignorance, what type of whiptail is that??
  15. WOW they are sooo cute... thanks for sharing!!!
  16. Excellent news and a very quick spawn might I add!!! Best of luck!!!
  17. I have a small 5-6 leaf green tiger lotus that I might be willing to part with..... has one surface pad. This one has it's own window "box".
  18. Nope, I only have 3.... which are all gone now. My bad, there is someone who had older and bigger rams on.
  19. no matter how much luck i got i doubt i'll get 2 pair from 2 males and a female lol maybe 1 pair could be ok then Hahaha sorry blond moment there :oops:
  20. Can try your luck, pretty sure I got 2 males and female, bit too early for them to be pairing and mating I would have thought?
  21. Too earlybut.... of the 3 fish, 2 are obviously bigger and have been chasing each other around the tank, bit too early to confirm but would guess that they are males.
  22. The males are generally bigger, like most cichlids. The males also have an extension of their doral fin and tail fins, well in mine they do
