A Azedenkae Piranha MFK Member Apr 19, 2012 1,891 72 81 Washington State, United States of America www.sosofishy.com Dec 8, 2012 #8 I was wondering about that as well lol, the caudal spot really makes me wonder what its parentage is.

R Regalblue Jack Dempsey MFK Member Oct 10, 2010 1,074 0 36 MI. Dec 9, 2012 #9 It looks like some of my "Kamfa project" offspring if they were mixed with a generic "Texas". I don't see any Veija in it. IMO it isn't elongated enough & the tail is too thin. (The meat not spiny part) Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App
