EH, they are your fish and you obviously think they are tops and that's cool. But those things are deformed massively. I don't dig them at all.

Honest opinion right there

i do believe thats its a genetic deformity and, personally ,feel very strongly against it being encouraged, there's a lot of fantastic breeders in Singapore with some beautiful fish, so you are very lucky that you have the opportunity to source stock from among the best in the world.
here's a link with some bulldogs for those that have not heard of them.

The high fins or bulldog are the results of selective breeding, by using parents with high fins. Personally, I like the shape.

Yep - I'm definantly not a fan.

I would say they have selective breed the fish with a desired (Deformed) high body.

Love your other fish but mate. :wink:
