well, if you want to get rid of the fry, ill pay shipping and you can send me a few of them, i can even send you some convict fry if you want some, the convicts will surely take care of the other glowfish fry once they get larger :)

isn't a patent just something that says you can't use the idea to make your own? So breeding them and selling them wouldn't be covered by the patent, but genetically modifying would be under the patent.

Still, i kind of like these fish. They aren't harmed like the injected fish, they look kind of pretty and they live normal lives from what i can tell. Its just the injected fish that suck.

They are proven to be genetically enhanced. That's cool. Th DNA cells were transfered.

You might also be able to use a black light. I'm not sure.
From GLOFish.com -

"Nighttime Viewing – In cases where the room is completely dark, a black light will create the appearance that the fish are glowing in the dark. This is a truly stunning and beautiful way to display your ornamental fish at night! But please remember that the black light will only be helpful in a completely dark room. Using a black light during the daytime will not result in the fish demonstrating their true magnificence. An actinic (blue wavelength) light in a completely dark room will also look great."

I've seen the red ones at the LFS, but didn't realize they had other colors too... The green is awesome :headbang2

I am fairly new to glo fish. I purchased 3 from a local store. One red, one orange and one yellow. I have noticed that my orange one looks quite big, the red one not as big and the yellow is slender. So I figure the orange and red are females and the yellow is a male. Even tho it appears she has eggs, does that mean they will reproduce or would I have a better chance at that if i had more males? Is there anything I can do to help them reproduce? Thanks for your help... :)
