So here is round 2 of my new WC male, from freshwaterpredators, trying to court my female that i have grown from a fri. They both got thrown in there about 20min before the video so the females color is a bit washed out. And you'll have to excuse the water cloudiness. Seems I have this bacteria bloom in that tank that just wont go away. Hope to clear that up soon.

Okay,
This may seem like a stupid question, but I am just making sure. The bright red one is the female right?

The female is the one that has distinctive red and black stripes and the male's coloration is more of a red with feint black stripes (may show none at all) and lots of blue spangles

Nice pair. The male looks very promising Rob.


Thanks Bro,
My ultimate goal would be to have him grow out to look as nice as your beast.
