New Bp

~T~ · May 5, 2006

Got her today, not sure I should have but i'll work something out.She got quite a bit of hassle off of Texas Pete at first and I thought I might have to put her in the upstairs tank but things seemed to have calmed a bit.I misjudged her size too, shes actually bigger(well longer)than Boss and about the same size as Texas Pete.

Cute little girl (or big, I guess I should say,) but quite odd!

sweet couple bro, that's a nice econdido you got there, also your newly acquired female.. does not look like a bp, her body is more uniformed and stocky, and fins are nice and long than a reg. Bp.. not to mention her eyes and that cute mouth of hers..nice head she also have.. looks like when she's spawning she will have a lil knot, but color wise i dont know if she will turn bright red.. but if she does.. then you got yourself a winning female brooder :good:

she is truly a mut of some sort.. but is a way better quality than a Bp.. let see how big she grows.. so how big is she now..thanks for the share.

Thanks man althoug the texas is defo not pure.The BP is about 7-8" so I'm gessing shes gonna stay that colour.Shes still having problems so I might need to move her to another tank.The texas mix is leaving her alone but my other female BP is now giving her a hard time.

good catch but i really dont know how much that is in US dollars.. but to me from her colors.. i would not think she came from Happy Breed Farm in Taiwan, but does resemble some of MR. Chen aka Rarefish's Darmo KKP.. and they do get big and bright red.. I see that she is still fading..Nice!!!

Most Def, she will bring out some sweet RT's.. good luck
