I bought a few of of these from Rapps in December 2015. They have grown quite a bit since then and the color is starting to come in. I've had h. Deppi before but not F1 so hoping they will be nicer than the last male deppi I had. Will update this as I go. Who knows maybe I'll even get a pair.
But kind of dissapointed the one looks to be slightly deformed. Not 100% sure, but the gill plate doesn't look fully formed on the one side. Still love the fish though.

J/K, great looking fish there. Like the JD too, good amount of speckling

Lol!

Thanks, I don't have the JD anymore. He was really peaceful until he snapped one day and almost killed my robertsoni. I think he wanted to breed and she didn't. He had to go after that.
