I have a beautiful titanium flowerhorn and I was very interested in trying to breed him. Don't want to breed him with a parrot. I was interested in a red devil or similar fish. I read that you had to "vent" a red devil. How does one go about venting a fish? Thanks
 
Veting:

Gently hold the fish in your hand.....Squeeze with a downward motion along the stomach to the anus........The sexual organ will come out of the hole, "venting."Thick tube means female, thin tube means male...................
