Here is another update of Location X. In the beggining you will see a lil male offspring from the General and Monster X, towards the end you will see a lil female i swapped for the lil male, Some more of Monster X and at the end Xtreme:) So good news for me, It looks like ill have a couple females coming in 2 weeks, 1 X female and 1 Z female (same strain as Weedamese's:) which ill breed with my X strain. So as long as that goes as planned i will have some pairing to finally do with my 2 X males:headbang2 Ive decided to Keep the lil male from the General to carry on his fathers legacy;) he was the lil runt and is now starting to show potential, not like NYjetsfan's yet but he will definitely represent. if not he will be replaced with 1 of the 1000 fry ill be growing out. So i have my fingers crossed untill the 2 females show up cause im really excited to get some more breeding going on!! After this i am going to hold off on updates untill the females arrive and ive got things crackin. Monster X is just over 7", Xtreme is around 6" and the lil guy is 4". I havent been able to put a tape on any but you can get a good idea of size when monster x is up against the divider with the lil male.
I am totally loving the personalities and colors of this strain:naughty: here in a week or so ill be doing some re-arranging and giving each X their own 125 and divide it with a female. im thinking with the way theyre growing now by the end of summer Monster X will be pushing 10-11"

looking good love all the spangles. It will be awesome to see the results of all these breeding plans. Over a thousand umbees they runnin up the food bill yet?
 
thank you, the food bill isnt too expensive right now the fry are eating decapsulated brine and fry crumbles. If your looking for umbees i have hundreds of lil guys;)
 
Looking fantastic.
 
Wow, loving them.

- Btw i picked up a .75" umbee today. Rio mag. I really hope it's a male!
 
OMG BRO Those Umbee are SICK!!!! PLease Promise me if things work out and you are able to breed ( I don't see why they won't, since everything else breeds soon as it touches your water! :D) Those location X and Z females you will sent me some of each batch ??? come on hook a brotha up!!!

I Do Love All the Umbees I got from you that are from the General and I am still going to keep a couple males ( or I could keep a couple females and hope that I get a male from ya if your able to breed X with Z That would be the Most intense color and spangles EVER!

I am going to have Plenty of room coming in with in the next 3-4 months ( lets just say I am going to be stepping up my game , remember what I was talking to you about on the phone :-D Heck Yea!! ) and YES I am going to be buying a GOOD camera that is actually not to expensive at all( going to make a thread later asking everyone if they have used that brand before and their thoughts on it )

If you get a chance give me a call I am going to be home all day, working to get everything ready to bring my 360 gallon tank to LIFE !!! I will take plenty of pics and will make a thread once its done, it is going to take a couple months to get everything just right but at least Its actually in the process of getting done 8-)

The male(s) are phenomenal. I guess that's X on the left in the beginning of the video and Xtreme on the right in the end?

Thank you Ed, and yes Monster X is on the left and Xtreme is on the right. My lil general offspring is in the middle;)

Fantastic!! Great Job bro :D!!! You will have some of the baddest frys for sure!!! your boys are growing up fast

Thanks D-man:) Thats what im hoping for:headbang2 but i cant count my chickens before theyre hatched lol I feed these guys twice a day and i havent really been powerfeeding at all. mostly cause they'll finish eating off the bottom and i dont like having dirty tanks so i only give what they can eat right away.
