Trilobite Posted December 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 A few males. Dragon scales are taking ages to fill in... :evil: Finnagewise theres only about 3 males with potential, but Im lucky that theres even that considering the fathers traditional pk finnage. Most of this spawn is male, so far Ive found only 3 girls, hopefully there will be more hiding in the bunch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trilobite Posted December 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 mine also comin up gud !!some change thr colour so fast ...av few zebra lookin ones ,,fingers crosed Your babies are sounding really good! Its crazy how much they change colour ae! one day they are blue, then 2 days later they are white. I think we need to see some pictures of yours :-D you are getting a real decent mix from the photos, the parents heritage must be crazy. im finding alot of females in my blues. I can only imagine what went into making those parents lol. Its weird how its hardly ever a nice 50 50 split between sexes ae. I wonder if there actually is something like water temp of pH that controls how many males or females you get in a spawn. At least you have a good chance of finding a good quality female in your batch. They are literally the hardest thing to find lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trilobite Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 how is the albino doing? Its turned into the ugliest fish Ive ever seen in my life. I kind of hate him :oops: and hes so fussy Hes gained some black so he was just a partial albino. He used to blow nests for the female runt that was in his tank but now Ive taken her out Binu that one looks really cool, will be interesting to see how it looks when its older Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamH Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Awesome job! Loving the tails and colours, aquabid quality :nfs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binu Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 is thisall from that import marble male? mine too geting there no space to keeep them how do you manage to keep them till they grow till this age? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trilobite Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Haha thanks! I dont know about aquabid quality though Yep all from the same spawn. I just take out the biggest bullies, then sell them. When/if I run out of room I use cokebottles with holes in them inside a plastic tub Heres some ladies :-D And this will be the guy who will most likely be the father of the next gen...he has the best rays, body and sharpest tail (even though its still really round lol) Most others were so horribly round... And my fave guy whos unfortunately no use for breeding. I just love his colours I think plan for the next gen will be an outcross to a sharp hmpk to fix up the finnage. I got given a few really nice red males and females who have incredibly sharp tails so they should be able to help sharpen up the dragons. Problem is Id have to sacrifice colour for the first gen, since dragon cross red wont be very pretty... but it will be worth it But check out the tail! as sharp as a knife!! All siblings are consistently sharp so it would be interesting to see if the reds can help defeat the round tails Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Wow Monique - you are doing a fabulous job. With the bottom guy will he not pass on the split ventrals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trilobite Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Yeah a lot of that spawn had split ventrals, hopefully a dragon female with normal ventrals can compensate, Im nervous though because a few of my males had split ventrals as well so split vents runs through both lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Well he is a very nice red half moon. As good if not better than some I see on overseas forums. Your other males are stunning as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trilobite Posted March 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 I agree, those reds are definitely some of the best fish in the country at the moment. The ones hes keeping to breed are amazing. I just wish my dragons were as sharp lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willpagenz Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Do you want to sell any of hose awesome fish or know where to get some like them porque quiero! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjansss Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 I think those are all awsome I tried to breed my two bettas once a completely white female non albino And a dark blue male just when the female was nice and eggy and the male had finished a nice big bubble nest the female died.
