I sort of have the same problem with my Aggie Red/Golds..... some have more orange tails and then some have more yellowish tales.... I guess this happens when you make a domestic color strain.... and i do feed lots of Tetra Color bits for color enhancing traits.... lots of baby brine shrimp each day too....but also .... im not as old as brownie.... so my eyes havent gone bad yet.. i can still see the colors of my fish!!! Little John ........."A Yank who most likely would never make it out of the deep south after an ACA convention... Im sure I would help start the Civil War II......lol ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the apistogramma mailing list, apisto@listbox.com.
