Phil Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Hey Guys, mabey you could give some opinions to see what you think, then we can find out who is right later on I have this copper HM from lisa, he is one amazing fish, with the best caudal of any fish i have ever owned (although i cant get it in pics, i need a proper photo setup!)

Callatya Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 I'm voting longfin, or that in-betweeny fin which really is longfin, but not really as long as it should be :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishchick Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 as above - dorsal, anal and ventrals are wrong for a plakat. nice colour! J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted January 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Ok, latest picture, he deffenetly looks like a longfin now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckie Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Looks OHM too. Is that red wash in the butterfly pattern or just a slight difference in shades of copper? (Good work Phil!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted January 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Yep, i think he will be OHM too, he has an amazing caudal, shame it dosent come up in pics, but i am sure you remember what he looked like when he was small and it was already outcurved! He has no redwash, as you said, it is just different tones of copper, his brother has bands of different copper colour on his fins too. (good work breeding him lisa) :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted April 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 Here is a recent picture of him, he is totally in the wrong position and looks like a complete dork but i thought it was a nice picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbies Betta Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 now that to me is a proper copper. IMO all coppers should jave that purple hue, anything else (apart from the green hue) would have to be Copper Gold. He's looking good Phil :blush: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 Phil, he is nice! That is a great shot. He sure has beefed up and sprouted through this thread Do you plan to marry him off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figure_8 Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 his colouring is totally droolworthy. Gorgeous fish Phil! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
