3 very wet and frustrating hours later

[Fish on Fire]

I finally ended up draining half the pond in order to fetch this girl out of there to prep her for shipping.

She went from 8" to 9" since I put her in the pond, also the spangling has become a bit more pronounced. Here she is about 15 minutes after being pulled out of the pond and into the tank.

Sorry, I got a little picture happy. Might as well since this will be the last time I get to take any pics of her, cause she's going to thefishguy on the East coast. Cheers peeps.

What a beauty!

Love her! Thanks for the pics Coty! I like the high amount of blue, opposed to the black so many female festae seem to have.

 

[LemonHead]

One of the nicest festaes I've seen! Too bad you're letting her go. I think the colors will be more bright once comfortable.

She's nice bro! Fishguy is so lucky for getting her.

 

[Fish on Fire]

No problem. I just hope she handles shipping well.

[uncwnells]

Wow, I can only dream to one day get a female that pretty for my male!

 

[Dmaan.]

Nice fish, I'm glad I got to see her before she left.
