Updated Pics Of Taro & Tien's Babies.

I think the flash made them look more bluey :p One is particular is looking just like Taro.....has a nice white butterfly white band developing. 5 of them are cambodian like Mum.....think they are all girls.

What is very weird is our Red Dragon spawn with the metalic red coloured girl you sent us. There are a couple of cambodians with red fins and 2 or 3 which have no colour at all :blink:

Will be interesting to see how they develop!!!

ohhhhh!!!!, remember my 2 solid blues that i spawned and got over 300 fry? they are a couple months old ish and have got a mix of steels, red banded and a few platinums coming through, taken forever to colour up, my orange hm x red and white female have all come out white so far but who knows, hoping that the red loss gene is very intense in them, my blue and pink coppers were the worst mix, got 4 surviving, 1 pink copper female hmpk, 1 blue copper HMPK male, 1 silver black sex unknown but poss female and 1 red and black banded pk
 
They are pretty cute!!! Awww shoot, I can feel a breeding for me, coming on!!!

Crikey....you ended up with a real mix then. I wonder if a couple of these will be platinums.......any idea why they throw them?

Did you ever manage to spawn the white lady/boy from us?

Thanks......have you decided on your female yet?
 
did spawn the female from you but he ate the eggs due to being a first timer, he is a platinum base with pearl and red and steel throughout, was gunna spawn again but i went on holiday so decided to do them when i got back, conditioning them both up again now.

Its just throw backs from previous generations that all.
 
Beautiful lil babies Netty there such cuties :wub:

Thanks Lilfishie.......how is your breeding going?

Sounds like he's a great match for her. Was she a bit of a terror with him.......she's was quite a fiesty girl from what I remember lol

Can't wait to see some babies from her :wub:
 
she beat up the previous male but was soft as pie with him, she is really soft now :good:
 
Awww bless her. Releasing all those eggs must have mellowed her out :lol:

Talking of mellow.....have you ever noticed that larger spawns seem less aggressive. Draco's babies are 3 months old now and we've still not had to separate any of them.

yes, definately, ive got a fair few large spawns now and all are getting on great, got the odd bossy one but i just keave them there now, helps them learn social skills
 
It certainly does......I can't believe how laid back they all are. Like you say there is the odd one but nothing to warrant taking them out yet. And it makes life alot easier not having to jar them up quite yet too. I'm dreading it when we do have to lol
 
netty im so pleased with all the babies, really taking after Tien, im glad she got spawned, would have been a waste of a beautiful fish to have stayed here with me lol xxx

Hi There,

This seeed like the best discussion boared to ask for advice on keeping fighting fish, and also breeding them!

I currently have a male fighter, in one tank set up, he is amazing colours red and purple.. (I know nothing about this breed)
I have 5 Tropical tanks in total, and I was wondering if i could introdce a female to my other main tank? I was just wondering how she would get on with the others, and pregnant live barers i have in there. what do you think?

Is it a good idea, and should i just bring them together in a seperate tank to breed?

Any advice would be so greatly recieved.

Kind Regards
 
I would actually start a new post for this buddy you ask so many questions you would disrupt the spawn logg if everyone answered on this thread :good:
