Re: [GSAS-Member] Dario Dario Breeding

["Shango Los" <Shango@shangolos.com>]

Wow, Paul, this is a very informative picture.  I've never seen the female
Dario as brown.  I'd suspected I have only seen males but this confirms it.
I have heard others say the females were brown but I thought they meant just
washed out like some male darios get.

Thanks for the clue.

Shango

Shango:

I have had possession of males (red w/stripes) and females (light brown or
white with orange stripes).  You will know when you see a female (males are
dominant in commercial shipments).

Several members notably Betty enjoy these fish and have tried to collect a
spawning pair.  A very neat fish.

My "pair" closely resembled the picture here.
