Umbee Genetic's

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Great thread!! I think it's about time there's a discussion on genetics from the same and different locations. There are some new strains/ collection points out in the hobby and coming into it, i would love to compare all the strains and possibly turn this into an info thread so we can all learn more about genetics:)
 
Both of my F1 umbees are Rio Magdelana blue umbees.

I was told the parents of my 1st F1 were wild from Rio Magdelana.
 
Here is a wild female colombian blue umbee I had a couple years ago. I don't know where she was collected from in Colombia.

She was 9 inches in this photo. She was very , very nasty earning her the name MISS MEAN. She was the nastiest fish I ever had.

I traded her to a local fish store where sadly she was murdered by a male tilapia buttikoferi. I was told she was the aggressor in the fight , and I can believe it.

^^^ she was a keeper, should have held onto her !!!


She was just too nasty , and I wanted a male speciman.

My tank is not enough for a pair.

If I did get her a boyfriend I think there would have been domestic abuse with him being the one getting beat up.
