Fp. gardneri nigerianus Akamkpa Dark Morph

[Monty Lehmann <lehmann at jlab_org>]

   Hi Jay!

    I finally got around to looking at your photos
   of your "dark" morph of gar. Akampha. This
    dark morph has the same coloration and
    intensity of an F1 strain of Akampa ( spelling
    at the time) that I got from Germany in the
    middle 1980's. In fact, it looks more like the
    Akampa that I was familiar with, than its tank-
    mates in the picture.( does this make the pale
    colored Akampas "light morph" if I keep them
    again since I was used to the dark kind being
    the normal variety?

     It might interest you to know that the F1 that
     I had produced absolutely beautiful lyretails for
     a period. I have a slide of one of the lyretails
     in my slide collection. I entered the lyretail in
     one of the AKA conventions and it brought a
     considerable amount of money at the time for
     a gardneri!

      By the way, I still like gardneri and I currently
      have four strains: Lokoja, Misaje, Jos-Plateau
      and Mamfense-Ossing.

            Regards,

                     Monty Lehmann
