Blaze : My Banjar Red

[azura]

yellow tail ... u mean green aro, here in indo theres banjar but got yellow tail from juvenile and some ppl called it yellow banjar, some others called pino/green aro.
and theres low quality red banjar marketed in local tat have red tail but when it grew up the redness turned into yellow/orange.
yours is top grade red banjar tat meant to be exported only.
heres pic our local red banjar

14" and still have red fins .... woah, i havent seen this kind banjar in my local market especially when reached adult stage the red fins would turned yellow.

truly amazing banjar.

My friend's Banjar Red's tail didn't start turning yellow until 20". It was reddish/orange at 16"-18" still.

I'm not sure. I think it's just about the dominant gene. Some mature yellow tail like a Green or keep red tail like a Super Red. Just depends on which gene is more dominant(Depends on parents). Just my thought. TBH I haven't seen a Banjar Red with yellow tail under 12"

ok thanks i guess that makes sense

so we will wait and see if he keeps the red [fingers crossed]

he is now in a 180G with 9 CLs of assorted sizes [biggest one being 4-5inches or so], 3 ornates [14" pigs ], an endii [9inches] and an albino red eye sailfin pleco
