where EVERY things LEGAL :)
This is my top pick location X umbee that I had out of my group and you can see why....... @ 1st I though he was a she but as soon as I took him over to a buddy of mines house (thanks again Mike) and he was able to have his own space and develope this is what came of him. He is now 8.5" and just STUNNING !!!! I am really proud of how he is turning out and should be a sight to see when he is up around 12"+. Also like to thank Chris (UMBEEKING) for his dedication to the hobby and this species imparticular. The umbee's he brought back are 2ND TO NONE!!!!! I'd put the 4 I have up against any out there any day. Shoooot I'd put my female up against any male out there ;):ROFL:. Sorry Dan I'd have to argue with you now that I have the baddest umbee/s out there both male and female. Like I said before Chris you out did yourself with ALL the umbee's you brought back. Big thanks also to my local fish buddy Jose (JCardona) Watermark sig is pimpin big dog. On a side note I do have another post up for you umbee keepers, I am looking for a high quality female with lots of freckles 5-8"'s. Let me know if you can help, thanks.

Well onto my SHOWPIECE, I like to introduce everyone to "X-hibit"

Definitely a prime specimen. The form and coloration are excellent. I hope you can find a suitable mate for him to pass on those good genes to another generation.
 
Nice! Now you just need jose to come take some photo's of it. The net photos and the last one look good. Nice watermark.
 
Ok, you can bring him back over lol. This umbee has made me like umbees! Definitely a show stopper. Glad I could help get him on the road to his full potential.
 
Simply stunning this location point has not let me down yet!!! His coloration will only get better from this point on. The adults from this location are the most stunning Blue Umbriferum I have seen yet. THE WESTCOAST CONNECTION JUST LAID THE SMACK DOWN RIGHT NOW!! !Good Job with him NorCaliCichlids,Jcardona I love the art work brother, you got down foresure! and Lopaka Thanks for the props brother, I look forward to seeing future post on this guy. Simply stunning!
 
Looks good. Umbeeking, can you post a thread with all the different umbee variants you've collected? I can't keep up with what location X is vs whatever. Would really like to see the differences next to each other.

difference between the 2 strains of blues that UK brought in is really no big difference, there both beautiful !!! I know cuz I have both and can't complain with either. The real differences comes when put next to a Rio Mag, then the difference is very evident.
 
nice! that umbee is almost torpedo body than a tall body.

Yes Earl, just the way I prefer although there are some X's showing Rio Mag confirmation

Definitely a prime specimen. The form and coloration are excellent. I hope you can find a suitable mate for him to pass on those good genes to another generation.

Thax Gruff, He is by far my favorite..... he will have a mate soon enough. I got big plans for this particular guy.

Nice! Now you just need jose to come take some photo's of it. The net photos and the last one look good. Nice watermark.

beleive it or not all the photos were taken with the same phone came, however I think the cleanliness on the tank had to inpact the photo. Nothing like Jose's DSLR shots though.

Ok, you can bring him back over lol. This umbee has made me like umbees! Definitely a show stopper. Glad I could help get him on the road to his full potential.

He will be back soon enough right next to my other beauties

THE WESTCOAST CONNECTION JUST LAID THE SMACK DOWN RIGHT NOW!!!

NO DOUBT, EC don't bring your knives to our gun fight !!!
