Phil Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 This is one i got from Nick. This fella was swimming around in one of his growout tanks so peacefully. Since he has been separated for nearly a week he has sprouted abit and got quite aggressive. I find it amazing that his fins developed like this without any exercise and in with about 40 other fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuckie Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 I was lucky enough to snatch 2 pairs of these - a DT pair and a PK pair (they seem to be PK anyway!). So hopefully soon we'll have a nice wide Aussie gene pool of Nick's Dragons and it will be fascinating to see how the strain develops and what people cross into it! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NICK1960 Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Nice photo Phil. I'm glad to see he is growing so well. I'm hoping to jar a whole lot more of mine especially since my new barracks is almost finished. Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celeste84 Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 o.o o.o *prays* please let mine turn out like that, please let mine turn out like that!! LOL beautiful fish never really liked dragons until i saw nicks, there's something so nice about them, they're really appealing prolly cause all the others i've seen have only been masked on their sides or have been red bodied as well as red finned LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted September 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 Thanks everyone (forgot to check back in here!) Stefan, the female has developed more, i think the branching has gone overboard a little though. I love her long ventrals though! The fry are going well too. I wont be breeding this pair again, so they might be in need of a new home soon Here is the female now: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
