They are all great Dan! I hope to be able to shoot some of them at ACA this year Really looking forward to seeing that Asfraci again and how he has progressed. How are the Tuba doing?

We are think take one year off showing fish, lol
The Asfraci is getting big all the time, he is about 13-14" right now, very active, he is still a young fish, maybe next year, you can take more pics at aca.

Thank you for all your comments.

I for one am sorry to hear that, I think it'll be a blast and the show room not nearly as amazing with out your entries. . .

I feel like a noob asking this question
What exactly is an F1?? Is it like high grade?

 

[MTN PIKE]

F1 means first generation ( usually tank raised ), spawned from wild-caught parents. The higher F# usually means a lower quality more diluted bloodline. A friend has F thirty-something tropheus - they are still nice fish! Some breeders like to introduce wild-caught fish to improve their genepool.
