Very interesting patterns

 

[John Rambo]

either I saw that exact butti before, or that pattern is spreading around. really nice

 

[big dovii]

I had a small with with a faint pattern like that.
That thing is amazing.

Pattern changes and develops as they grow.. those bars will eventually break apart and should straighten up with time.. you see it alot more in Convicts. I had a convict with a perfect #7 on the side - his name was Mike Vick when his pattern grew out, I tossed him to the 'big dawgs' lol..

 

[butters]

i don't think the stripes are going to straighten,they are there from young and don't change.i own the fish in that video and he is 14"plus some now,he lives with 5 other buttis

 

[Miles]

probably a product of a shallow gene pool then

they use them as food fish down under?
