Here is my orange plakat baby, who I got from Kelly. He was pure orange when I got him, not a hint of black anywhere but his ventrals. Now look at him! :hyper: The black is most obvious on the bottom edge of his tail and in his dorsal - it's getting very dark. He's got other tinges too, even some on his body. I think it's rather dashing. :wub:

Love this pic of him. :D Aaaand it's all I managed to get. I was in a tank cleaning race with Sorrell and couldn't waste too much time. :shifty: Yes, I won anyway. :flex:

awww :wub: He looks a little mean :rofl: :wub: :flex:

This is so funny, so those that had dark shades and black when they were young, turned pure orange. And those who were pure orange are now showing black... :S

Look how long his ventrals are , I love that! :wub: He reminds me so much of his father :wub: The way he has the black speckles on his side too.

EDIT~ (again, I keep adding :rolleyes: ) I just showed Tuesday the pics and she said "Wow, I think that's because he's a full man now"
:lol:
 
He is so cute! It is so neat to see pictures of the siblings :nod: One of mine is still all orange and the other has reddish and black freckles :wub: They all look so much alike though :p


BTW, I cleaned more tanks then you missy and you were half done when we started, official ruling? I win! :flex: :-
 
:wub: Orange is my favorite color, enough said. I'd give BOTM for last pic.
 
Thanks!!! :D He feels special to be nominated, even though he has turned some interesting colors. :lol:
