GeeTee Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Have bought a cobalt blue and a mate has a fish I think is the same,so I ask you all to help and tell me whether they are a match and if so are they the opposite sex as he has offered his fish to me to have a go at breeding them. My fish is the top one. If the bottom picture is not good enough I have another photo but it is a little blurred Thanks Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakyfish Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Imo the bottom one looks more like a female Lombardoi or Pseud. Kenyi but im not to sure about the top one not quite the right shape for a cobalt blue but could be a cross between some and a zeb maybe???

herefishiefishie Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Hi GT, The top pic looks like it may be a Cobalt, a fat one at that. The bottom one isn't one, female lombardoi maybe. Just my opinion though. To help you out go to google, images, Metriaclima callainos. Frenchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeeTee Posted November 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Thanks for the replies guys. Put them together and keep an eye on them could be an easy way. Googled Metriaclima callainos and came up with good photos,some fish with stripes too. The fish in the second photo,the stipes are very faint also googled Lombardoi they have a fairly definate stripe. I'll see how I go. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakyfish Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Yeah the lombardoi generally have a definate stripes but not always just the barring in the tail as well made me think lombardoi but i might be wrong lol It has happened before lol Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
