Phil Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 Hi Guys, This is the pair i got from Coral today, i think they are brilliant. Coral raised an amazing Melano spawn and its funny, i asked her if she had any deltas in the spawn, she had to look for the only delta in something like 50 HM males in the spawn! No Long anal fins!!! The females are great too! These are just some quick pics of them floating in their bags, the male had a little chew on the way home
splendidbetta Posted September 15, 2005 Report Posted September 15, 2005 WOW, the male is pretty nice, lovely deep color, but that female is MAD love them!
Figure_8 Posted September 15, 2005 Report Posted September 15, 2005 great looking fish Phil! Is that an orange female in the background of the second pic?
Phil Posted September 15, 2005 Author Report Posted September 15, 2005 Thanks guys, the female is something special, the rest of the females Coral had in the tank were developing really nice aswell :P
Phil Posted September 15, 2005 Author Report Posted September 15, 2005 Well i did scoop out a male melano HM from her female tank, coral thought it was just a big female, he may do good at your house too :P
jax Posted September 16, 2005 Report Posted September 16, 2005 :lookaround: nice looking fish you got there, had only a little chew, but not noticable Thats amazing to have such a high ratio of hm to deltas :blush:
Phil Posted September 19, 2005 Author Report Posted September 19, 2005 Heres one more pic of the female:
Chuckie Posted September 19, 2005 Report Posted September 19, 2005 he may do good at your house too Yes he will, he's enjoying it here - til EDIE picks him up from me! He beat me to it! What a nice little black fish he is, almost no iridesence at all. Hey Phil, I just noticed that it looks in the photos like the male has red in his ventrals. I don't remember any of Coral's fish having red - is it just a trick of the light or something?
Callatya Posted September 19, 2005 Report Posted September 19, 2005 The blue has quite a lot of red wash in person (I snuck a peek at him in the bag:)) but it isn't really all that visible unless you have the light behind him.
Robbies Betta Posted September 19, 2005 Report Posted September 19, 2005 that female is stunning, is that rosetailing on her?
Phil Posted September 19, 2005 Author Report Posted September 19, 2005 Robbie, i am not sure if its rosetail, but it sure does look like it Lisa, he beat you to him! did you pick another male? The blue one above has a little bit of redwash, but i am not afraid of it like some people, he was my favorite fish out of the lot, redwash and all :P
Chuckie Posted September 19, 2005 Report Posted September 19, 2005 No, long boring story but essentially my daughter has a social life and I do not, so I wasn't able to get to Coral's this weekend.
