Navarre Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 Hi there, I thought there were some at Orgainisms a wee while ago? Navarre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firenzenz Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 I have a trio of them. This shot of young male about 3 months old, so he's beefed up a bit. As in the name the blue is more azure compared to fryeri and more rounded Copadichromis shape They're going into breeding once a holding dragonsblood has freed up a tank. They have spawned already but she didn't go term, so hoping she does better. if not have mocked up a egg tumbler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryanjury Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 Actually thinking about it there were issues raised on here (I think) about the latest lot brought in which might be why I didn't get any.. I really couldn't remember why I didn't get any Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firenzenz Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 The only issue I remember was that hollywoods Mt eden put their's in with young Fryeri and young lithobates-Duh! Here are some more recent pics. Boy and Girls, what do you think? Note spots on females, also the girls are in with young fryeri girls and bodyshape is definitely different. Cheers! Andrew If there is something fishy about them maybe it's because they're fish LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firenzenz Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 Yeah Ryan, these guys are only a few months old. My Kandango's didn't deepen out till a year or more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanjury Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 You seem to have a impressive list of fish there! And you take awesome pic's.. Hope you can breed these guys, im pretty sure they will fill out and look awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herefishiefishie Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 The utaka spots are a good sign & the aqua colour in the head is good too. Body shape is the only query, but they are young. Give them a chance to grow up. Great quality on the pics too. Frenchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
