debstep Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 We saw this boy on aquabid and Step just HAD to have him, I know he is only a delta but he is a bit of a unique boy and I like his big dorsal. We will probably look at breeding him to the Melano Hm girl we bought from Lilli. Any comments? Cheers Deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figure_8 Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 I like him! what a good looker. He's got a really unusual combination of colours & the cellophane bf edging really sets him off nicely. The Red spots on his dorsal remind me of real butterfly markings & rather than detracting from him I think they make him more appealing. Great pick up guys!!

Chuckie Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 he's a gorgeous fish. Reminds me of a great bargain I found at the LFS who formed the basis of some of my early spawns. I like deltas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splendidbetta Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 He is very striking! I like! Good luck with him :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Very Nice Deb, i like how black the body is, you dont see that too much! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debstep Posted June 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Yep- the colour is really intense on the body and you can see by the background the contrast hasn't been altered so should be that dark for real. I really like the blue being so pale as well, such an icy look and, yeah Mouse, gotta love the spots The breeder/seller is Chalerm who lists as Chalermbetta, Koblarp1960 and Plakad and has 100% positive feedback listed.

fuzzy_dragonfly Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 He reminds me of Pisces, one of Lily's boys. I tried breeding him but wasn't to sucessful , after that I lost him . I hope you have better luck, he's a lovely fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charntelle Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Hey Deb. He is a STUNNER! Love the colouring. Congratulations. I have bought lots of fish privately off Koblarp, he is a great bloke and the fish always arrive in great shape. You should have no problems there. Congratulations again I'm green with jealousy at the moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
najrick Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 What a great looking boy Deb. I just love his 3 pink dots the best. Hope they have not disappeared by the time he gets into the country. Let Step know that he has great taste in fish. Najina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
