i got this RT from my friend Tony (Rookie408), he moved to NYC and gave me this awesome fish that he's grow since an inch. This RT is from MFK member (cjbarth) I know you guys know who he is! fish is noRT.jpgw 6 inches and swimming in my 150g community tank doing great! i have 1 other RT thats 75% faded from the same batch, Tell me what you guys think of my new RT?RT1.jpg

I've noticed that with Chris's fish, their eyes look really weird.. Like the color from the iris is leaking out onto the sclera. You should find out if he's fertile or not :D
 
Lookin good!

that eye trait comes from the parrot in the line I believe...MOM is the same way.
 
yes and that is why the faded males are infertile :(
nice fish
 
That eye condition certainly isn't a normal trait in RT's, I've never seen anything like that before.
 
thanks for the feedback guys, the eyes do look a little weird, but how can you complain about a FREE faded RT. i hope he/she is fertile? fertile or not this fish looks great in my community tank with my other CA/SA cichlids.
 
ya theres a lot of that in king kong parrot too... if I'd guess its a result of the unmatched genotypes of v &
a... like the spine thing & white eye infertility


[edit]
o sorry that was supposed to quote the inital comment made about the eye leakage lol
[edit]
 
i should of said that fish with eyes like that are usally infertile. i typed that b4 i went to sleep
