Scat is this one of the trio that you had, If so am I wrong in assuming that the others paired up. If so put me on a list for some fry. By the way that one is gorgeous.

It is. The two I am keeping have paired up and laid eggs several times. Still no viable eggs yet, but I've gotten over the 2nd major hurdle in getting them to even lay eggs.

Regarding this fish, in all honesty it is actually the best looking of the three. It has always had a more interesting pattern with better green coloring. I often thought I should move him into his own tank to grow him out as a show fish. Alas, I need the money to but other fish... :grinno:
