les Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 but is there a sister that would compliment him Ness? and can we have more pics as he develops would like to know if he will mate and if his offspring would have the same trait as he did and well he is a good looking dude Cheers Les Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neffy Posted May 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 There are a few siblings left but like paul said earlier breeding to a sibling is probably only going to increase the deformities and not a good idea, If i was to breed him I think I would try to find a girl with only a few rays & SD form to try and reduce the rosetail effects. I dont mind when fish have rosetails but when they are stunted bumpy headed late bloomers im a little hesitant on the morals of breeding them. Ill keep this updated with pics and developments :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
