What is he? And is he a quality fish?

[Marto]

Hi all,

Limited tank space - time to rationalise the stock.

Please advise what you think he is, what you think he should be paired with, and wether or not he is worth breeding.

Marto.

nice shape awsome fish

[Robdog]

Great shape, nice red eye. I think he'd be a keeper

[Marto]

Thanks guys,

He thinks he is a good sort and has an attitude to match.

But what is he, and what best to pair him with?

Full profile added to assist.

Pair him with a marlbro, FOTU, or a VERY clean melon/pigion of your color choice. try and keep that red eye, I dont often see it in pigion based fish.
VERY NICE!

Thanks Wayne,

Eagerly awaiting the selections, maybe you could post the candidates here and the forum can choose his new girl?

Cheers,

He has a beautiful forehead on him, but his dorsal is letting him down alot. Colour is ordinary and black fins are undesirable aswell.

If you breed him, keep an eye out for those characteristics in the offspring.

We looking at the same picture?? I think he looks fab and initially thought he might be a rose discus. I would pair with any r3ed, orange, yellow, rose

Thanks Madasa,

Still having trouble finding something suitable to pair him with.

Wayne??????????????????

I have a gorgeous large marlboro red female who is just the most adorable fish.

Regrettably I suspect we are states apart as I am in WA

Hey mate,

Might have some nice melons to put with him very soon :wink:
