Sorry for the late reply Angus.Ive had the Pearl for about two years now,he was about 4.5 inches across the disc when i got him,hes currently 9 inches,just need a girl friend for him now of a similar size, pattern and quality........anyone selling a large female in the UK please let me know,will pay good money for the right fish.
Cheers Dave.
ive been told they are nearer 5 to 6 inch disc,have a 10 inch female already but want another that size at least to make a breeding trio within the next 12 months or so.Im a little fussy too,the markings have to be right.....i could be in for a very long wait!!
