Hi Everyone:) I havent really posted much on my MagnumX Umbees, mostly because of what i had going on. But ive gotten a few requests so i put together a small video and a couple of pics for a little viewing;) I have around 25 or so umbees growing out with 5 midas in my 180g. I should be putting together a small shipment of these soon to help thin out the herd. but having so many in the same tank creates too much competition for one to pull ahead and shine above the rest, which i plan on fixing here real soon. They range from 3-5.5" give or take. the Midas are looking great too BTW:) I personally bred the MagnumX by breeding the wild Location X male i recieved from Umbeeking to one of my F1 Female "General" Rio Mag umbees. so far they are developing lots of freckles, nice reds in throat, and some are getting blues. but i dont expect to see much excitement for another month or so;) Not the greatest video but at least you can see a few:)

They're looking good Jason! Like you said, in about a month they will really start to shine. The male in the second to last pic is a Stud. He Reminds me of a Location Z!!

Thank you bro:) they will all have lots of freckles. I do see a few that resemble location z too:) but they will have a higher profile than the Z's and the feckles will get little bigger I believe whereas the Z's were in tons but smaller dots.

Thank you everyone:) and the Midas are available for those who really want them:) they were my favorite out of the spawns i had and I decided to put them in this tank to watch them growout. There is a pair forming out of the Midas too:)

Blue Freckled Madness! Good work brother. I got a batch over here from my pair and they are looking insane, just bursting with freckles. A new population of blue Umbees are here taking the Umbee to the next level.... Cant wait to see your pick in a couple months from now. :)
