Reply To: Long-Finned variety?
I think within this years is a bit too soon. Afterall, they are really new still. I think most breeders are concerned enough with just increasing the population before they are bred for specific traits.
On the other hand, it would be best if better (is more colorful, bold, beautiful) fish were used for breeding rather than runts and so on. I have this small female in my tank that hasn’t colored up like the others and I suspect it’s because of her genes. I’ve had them long enough to know it’s not just because she’s young.
