Re: [Killietalk] F. arnoldi Koloware F1/arnoldi Calabar

Hi Nick,
   
      Great to hear you got the fish and have fry. The fry are pretty strong so the move if careful should be fine. Once the fry start sexing out (3-4 weeks!) move them into as large a tank as you can as the males do a number on the caudals and you loose that magnificant fin in close quarters. Those caudals are just unreal when spread. It is a beautiful strain with the intense blue -- try frontal lighting to get the full effect. I hope you can keep it going as it is still rare in the hobby. it could easily die out. The females are great as they have so many and so large of purple body spots.

  Bobby,
Doug brought a pair of your stock to WAKO for me. I have some fry growing
on right now. Maybe 2 dozen. A very beautiful strain. I'm moving in 3
weeks, but the fry should be old enough to survive the move at that point.
