DFW
A LPS in The DFW area has some super Red Angels for sale. They are about a 1.5 in in size and have a nice red color to them... I have been looking for info about them with no Luck.

Can some one help me out with a web site.
thanks

Sorry no info, but some pics would be helpful. Are they actually red in color?

no picks. but I had called angelplus and word is they are Russian blue that have been given red color enhancer...

They are a light red plush
 
they talk about them on another forum, but I actually talked to the breeder of them, and there from the czech republic. over there they have a hard iron clay soil. from what he was saying is that the water has 18x's the levels of iron in it then it should, so what happens is the iron in the water gets absorbed threw the gills and into the blood stream.. which then turns the fish solid blood red almost... I did buy some of these and was shocked to see how fast they lost there color.. I was told this when i bought them so I'm not trying to put anyone down, the guy did good on his order, and if he had anything else that i wanted, I would definitely order form him again.. I will post some pics, but one will have the guys name on it, so if shouldn't be on there, by all means I'll take it off, and if he wants it off I'll do so.....

The super reds are gorgeous! To Bad the color is non-lasting..
