View Full Version : Last of the breeding pairs

The last of the breeding pairs phew! this is turning into a marathon.
Male Golden Sunrise (not fully grown yet) Female Allenquer. The price is only 180 dollars as the female has an imperfect dorsal fin. OK I hear you say,why did you breed from her? but I have to say this male made up his own mind and could'nt be dissauded. Since I had no other female and I wanted him to practice fertilising eggs and raising young I let him have his way with her. And practice he did. They have a huge brood on board at present and are very fertile. In this pairs defence I dont think I have ever seen a better or more fierce set of parents as these. Perhaps they would suit someone just starting out breeding if they are prepared to cull heavily if required.
OK now for the young adults.

This young fish was sold to me as a Magic Red but I am not sure it is. It looks vey much like my male Chequerboard of the mated pair.

I am almost sure it is a male as it tried very hard to mate up with one of my known females but got chased off by a much larger male.

I dont know if this fish is male or female too young yet to show any breeding behaviour.

This photo shows them with babies. They are the parents of the juvies I have for sale at the moment. The male is not yet fully grown and is shaping up to be a big boy. The female however although still young will not grow any bigger.

I have included this photo of the male chequerboad as the other with the young is quite a few months older. He has grown a bit since then and will continue to get a bit bigger yet.

Even though I said I have more young adults for sale, the last four (Red spotted green, Eruption, LSS, and Snow leopard) I have decided I can't part with. So thats all I have for sale, Apart from quite a lot of small Golden PB's about 10cent size and smaller (some too small to sell yet)
Thank's for looking.

I saw these fish last night they are some of the best I have seen in town for a long time, so if you want some fish to start your breeding with try these.

Yes I am pretty good at multiple posting mcloughlin2 but do you know after the last one, fingers crossed I think I have it figured out. Because my internet connection is lousy it keeps dropping out when I refresh the page it takes me back to my last post. From there I have been using the backward arrow at top left of page to take me back and that's where the double posts happen. Thats my theory anyway lets see if it works. Any advise on this would be welcome it is very embarrasing.

You'r spot on mcloughlin2 but I think after the last double up, I may know where I am going wrong.
Because my internet connection is so lousy it keeps dropping out when I try to get back to my post. When I refresh the page it takes me back to where I posted my last one and then when I use the backward arrow at top left of page thats when it double posts. Thats my theory anyway. The next time it drops out I will change the way I do it, fingers crossed. Any advise appreciated as it is sooo embarassing.

Tip to try. After posting even if you internet is a bit off, just click on the forum tab at the top then go through to see if you have posted, might save you some time. HTH
