New Istlanum Pair

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I didn't get bent out of shape over anything. The way u came across sounded like I didn't know what I was doing and that you were tryin to make it known. and I'm still not gettin best out if shape over anything just stating facts. I'm not tryin to have a pissin contest over something stupid. I first started keeping istlanums when joefatfish brought in a group of wild caught, which is only a few years ago. And from what I've seen was there wasn't a lot if experience if any with this species from hobbiests on this site until those specimens were brought in and kept. Also out of all the ones he brought in I'm one of the very few people who successfully bred and kept a pair alive. So imo that is some pretty good expirience with them even if It was only for a few years. I'm not tryng to insult your intelligence, and I am one who doesn't take likely to any personal attacks even if they weren't tryin to attack. Sometimes it can be hard to interpret tone and intention thru text bro. And some things may tend to get perceived with an underlying tone. Which is what I perceived it as, which kinda shocked me cause we never crossed paths in a negative manner. So Im over it ...:)

And I also realize that even the best make mistakes, but when I flipped this fish over it was quite apparent that it was oO not oo. So its either a female istlanum or its a male with a big vagina!!;) lol
 
Awsome pair bro this has to be one of the nicest pair I have seen. Goodluck pairing them out.. I hope to be getting some soon :)
 
Well I took some vent pics and I'm sending them off to one of the pros for second opinion because this one is frustrating me:/
 
No he never tried as far as I know. I just want to be sure and I'm gettin second opinion on vent.
 
Lol thanks bro. It's not the water with this pair. These two are practically grown and all credit goes to nemesis:) he's got a thread with them if you wanna check out how they looked before. but thank you anyway and ill do my best to keep them looking healthy.
 
Ok I recieved opinions from both Jeff Rapps and Gage from the vent pics i took and both of them are saying female!!!:) if anyone feels the need for me to post vent pics on this thread then let me know and ill give you a shot too.
 
Wow!! Jason, beautiful pair :) Keep us posted on the fry :) I really like Istlanum too :)
