N1CK Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 That blue ones getting some nice colouring how big do they grow before colouring up on their bodies?? as i have one thats around 3cm with completely red fins and a white body..... (from a red mother and a cambodian butterfly father) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycnlo Posted October 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 hi nick. if its about 3cm it should show signs of coloring up by now... id say it prob will stay cambodian.. ie if it has the cambo genes it more than likely will throw that way as i think its a domanant gene those piks are very average... there are some awesome colors showing and darkening up unfortunately its real hard to take piks of them in the main tank due to movement and lack of lighting , as running indian almond leaf as a treatment at moment.. will be slowly removing this by WC over next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycnlo Posted October 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 any yellows and greens still? Hey cant seem to spot that Yellow one anymore.. alot of the fighters have increased color dramatically there are a lot of blacks and shades of black some of the blacks are green black few reds... reds and blacks .. transparants , blues , green blues .. transparant blues starting to get the nice long fins now... currently setting up another grow out tank.. so hopefully get alot more isolated this weekend to safely grow to stunners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 Awesome fighters . I've recently just got back into breeding fighters and have done a few spawns, the latest hatched yesterday (steel blue HM dad and blue HM mum) and I'm going to be doing another spawn later hopefully with my turquoise/aqua green male with a turquoise/aqua green female HM pair and I was just wondering how you seperate you males? Do you have a heated room you keep them in or juust jars floating in the tanks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycnlo Posted October 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 ive got couple of aqua one 12 display tanks and also have couple of tanks that im using for bottled fighters... just down side is occationally you get the odd fat one that trys to get out the small holes and gets stuck only lost one to this but still i havent had any spawns recently. may be looking at giving fighters up for a bit will keep a few of the nice ones incase i want to start again. just seems people expect to get pure halfmoons for next to nothing yet when ever i seem to purcase them i dont mind paying 150+ for a decent pair or 40-50 for a female and lost about $1200 worth of breeders during my move till i got my water situation sorted considering breeding other stuff for now or giving it away all together for while and just keeping a few so can concentrate on other stuff for while as its been taking up alot of my spare time for while now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
