I now have the male fader paired with a very red female I got several months ago from Cooler (the pictures are his). I tried pairing her with him 2 time before, but he beat her near death both times. Took her a good month each time to recover. They finally seem happy, and I got a very small spawn from them of about 15 fry. Hopefully they will make it. I would like to see some transference of her red to the fry, and have his fading. She also has a considerable nuchal hump (kok).
