Royal Blue fry Pictures

I took a few shots of my Royal Blue spawn, so I thought I'd share them, there are 3, here is the first.

Here is the 2nd

beautiful
i'm waiting for some of my kids to grow a bit more and show colour, ahh, the waiting...hope mine look half as nice as those guys

And here is the 3rd, in this one you can see one of my adopted Albino Bristlenose Pleco fry. The Bettas range in size up to 3/4" and are now 7 weeks old today.

WOW!

Mine are 7 weeks old too but still runty!

I like them.....

They're gorgeous.

Linda they're beautiful! The color is just amazing

aweee, so cute.. my babies are 7 weeks old today too, but they are only about 1/4" (i wanted them to grow a little slower) but still cute little things

awww,Linda. They're beautiful!!! Such a good betta mommy

hi wittle bristlenose

Nice! Were both parents royal blue? Did you get all royal blue, or is it really true that you come out with steels and turquoise as well?

Linda, I just want to let you know what your thread did to me.


I know want one of those bettas.

I'm now in the market for a b-nose albino.

and at the same time.

gorgeous little fry you got there

You've got some really nice looking fry there . Please keep us updated of their development, always curious to see how they develop .

Greetz,

Joep

Nice young un's shrks1. Could you feed them a litle more??? They look kind of skinny. heheh

Kitty: No, the Dad is a Steel and the mother is a Turquoise, so that's why they'll all be Royal Blue babies. But yes, if I were to breed a Royal to a Royal, I would get Turquoise/Green, Royals and Steels. I won't breed siblings from this spawn though as I just don't like how small and slow growing sibling spawns are (if you can spot the little red guys in there with them, they were from a sibling spawn and they are MUCH smaller and slow growing, yet the spawns were only 3 days apart). So I have no idea what or who I'll breed a child from this spawn with, that's too far down the road and I don't even know what I'll have then, hehe. I may try crossing back to mom or dad and see how that works growth wise, or I may pick up someone new who I really like, we'll see

Fisher: LOL, they had just eaten a live blackworm meal I recently started them on the live worms as I finally got to the LFS to get some. They do get quite fat afterwards... I love that sight, they'll be going through a hugh growth spurt now that they're getting live worms once a day.

Unfortunately not many of the red spawn seem to be surviving, and those who are, are very small, except for a couple of them, so I don't expect many adults from that spawn...but as you can see, the Blues are doing great And they were the spawn I was more excited about, hehe. I'll get another red spawn cooking eventually with a pair that aren't siblings. I want to try the father from my 2 red spawns again with a wonderfully colored female who comes from awesome lines, or maybe I'll put her with a child from my first red spawn, I have one from that spawn I'm keeping for breeding, so I may try him first, if he doesn't work then I'll go back to Dad (he's the best daddy ever). OK, rambling now (thinking as I type, haha).
