My 1st Blue Gorillus Umbee, I'm addicted now!

[FlatFishLeo]

Well as you guys have seen, I got bitten by the Festae bug last year and its overtaken my tanks, but I looks like I've once again got hook on a new drug, I have gotten Gorillus Fever from the rest if you UmbeeKing Lovers!

Thanks to my MFK friends that have turned me into them, you guys know who you are? But I have to thank Chris (UmbeeKing) for bringing this fish into the hobby! I either love what you raise or just wanna be like you guys! All I wanna do is fit into the group of Festae/Umbee keepers!

I've received this Blue Umbee from another member (Fishaholicc) for a little over month now, traded some fish for this guy and a virgin UK Festae female. He's just in quarantine with 3 virgin female Festaes. His testosterone in the tank have induced all three to lay eggs within a week of each other. I'll be moving him into a 240 for grow out, looking forward to receiving a girlfriend so he can mess with!

Any comments either positive or negative is welcome, remember I'm a newbie and always eager to learn new things from the experienced UMBEE KEEPERS here!

Sweet pick up! It's easy to see how you got bitten by the bug.

Awesome! I thought the black gorillus were the San Rafael variant though?
