Collection Increases

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
yeah he constantly changes dark, light, etc. Never constant. it digs like crazy too. I did notice that some areas of the body pearls don't quite shine, they are dull. $10 dollars well spent tho. I still like em. He was basically a rescued fish lol. Wondering if it's female cause of the black dot on dorsal. Been thinking about tossing it in with some other fish now that I've had him for a while. Just tinfoils, some balas and my jags, but not sure about jags lol. How aggressive do the green texas get?
 
my parrot x green texas male has a black blotch on the dorsal fin but i definitely saw his breeding tube and it curved forward like a little hook but my largest green texas (RIP) male didnt have a black blotch.
 
In the pecking order in my tank it's flowerhorn, polleni, then the Texas. It's actually a chill little fish but will stand up for itself if it's picked on. And 10 bucks! That's a steal! Got mine for 30. Mine is a female and it does have black in the back of the dorsal. I think this works like 80% of the time in sexing them.

Yeah I've read it isn't a 100% way to sex this particular fish.

Yeah I heard the dorsal spot isn't 100% venting is the only way. I think I'm going to try housing him later with some fish. I think he's happy being by himself for now. I didn't think they were too bad. What are the max sizes on the shortbody green texas?
 
just an update on the lil bonsai fader...he's got a little bump :nilly: Crazy it popped up in the last week after it got beat up by my green texas. Thought the Green Texas could be a law abiding citizen in my a.k.a. community tank, but guess it's back to solo mode.
