Sandy02 Enthusiast Posts: 174 Kudos: 123 Votes: 34 Registered: 11-Jan-2004	I wouldn't breed her, spinal deficiencies are genetic. It'll show up in the fry or other generations. Beautiful fish other than that ^_^

Callatya Moderator The girl's got crabs! Posts: 9662 Kudos: 5261 Registered: 16-Sep-2001	Not a Wasan fish, possibly from his lines tho. No, all the other pictures show the same, she is a good 8mm shorter than she should be, and her siblings are worse. I am retiring them all to my trop tank, no breedies for these ladies EDIT: the eye injury is from an 'imbellis' female... BE AWARE that coloured imbellis (green/blue/masked) are not necessarily B. imbellis, its just a type name.

She came off better than one of her tankmates, she now has 2 hollows For animals, the entire universe has been neatly divided into things to (a) mate with, (b) eat, (c) run away from, and (d) rocks. - Terry Pratchett
