fish are absolutely beautiful

 

[Big Vine]

Thanks, guys!
Jess was spot-on with sexing them too...she PM'd me some pics before sending them, and sure enough, they are just as she told me they would be.

You and LWB should start an online fish store and sell your fry on there

 

[FreshwaterJeff]

Awesome fish, BV.

I'm still mad that they're not compatible with a planted tank - I'd love to keep rainbows...

 

[Big Vine]

Thanks, Jeff.

I put the 'third wheel' (non-paired female) into my 38 gal.---now planted---a couple days ago. I'll keep you updated on how the plants do (mostly green hygro and wisteria, along with some wendtii and petite nana).

On another note...the parents moved the eggs, which are now wigglers!

WELL WERE ARE THE PICS?!?! Congrats!*PEACE!*

 

[Fuzz16]

pics! we need them!

you should get a fish thats harder to breed...gives you somewhat of a challenge! like say...bettas!

 

[FreshwaterJeff]

Ha - so you ended up going with hygro, wendtii, and wisteria after all?

Sounds vaguely familiar

 

[sspitfire]

I have my three (female?) kribs in a planted tank with (however, there are only a few plants in there).. So far so good on all counts.

 

[Lonewolfblue]

Here's my new one...

 

[Big Vine]

Not too shabby, LWB.
Looks bigger than mine...probably what, about 3-4" (TL)?
