Dixon1990 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Sorry for the stupid question, but what are they F1 of? Wildfish or just a new strain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discusguru Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Dixon, you have to get the wild fish thing out of your mind lol. How many fish that the hobbyist get to keep are wild especially in NZ. They are the first generation of colour crossing of Halfmoon. Hoping to develope some new and unique colours . Definately not crossing different strains of fighters :evil: . Phoenix44, thanks for the encouragement and i'll keep you guys informed as they go.

Discusguru Posted March 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 wow i can see what everyone is meaning by looking like a marble. cool pictures i hope i can get mine to breed soon Patience is the name of the game in breeding fighters. Clean water and good food will get them going. Do not overfeed or you'll end up having sluggish. No water current in breeding tank too. Just a heater will do if you don't have a heated room. Good luck . Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
