Well congrats man on the new fry this is always fun and exciting
and I am happy for you. Not to knock this or anything, but instead just some constructive criticism.
Do feel you are back peddling a bit by breeding these two. The female Flame is real nice and of good quality. While the other fish is not bad quality it is also not to great. Never the less it is not the fish's quality only the coloring, markings, and lack of kok, that makes me say this. Couple things to keep in mind here for future breeding's using that female. One is that this particular strain can produce nice kok, but is not known for it. Instead it is valued for the color the wonderful redness of the breed. So by using a male that is sort of in the opposite of the color spectrum, and that lacks kok regardless of the fact, that yes it is still young does two things. One- washes out and takes away from your chances in #'s of producing offspring with the mothers wonderful coloring, and two further reduces chance of offspring with good kok potential. Of course this is not to say you may not get a few that turn out interesting or nice. Only referring to over all numbers here and trying to give some tip to help. Again congrats on the fry it is always a satisfying thing when the fish keeper is allowed this opportunity
Hook us up with some pics once they are free swimming those shots are always cool to see

I have a male blue dragon and he has a nice kok growing on him right now. I can't wait 'til he's full grown. Check the pics in my sig...reverse;1192061; said:
My suggestions would be a nice faded Kamfa, A red GM, or a flowerless pearly Kamalau (red based or gold) Sorry don't have to many leads but could direct you to a good seller that ships up there if you like?
