well, first off, this pic proves my wife takes better pics than me (even with the leaves in the foreground)
after discussing crowntail finnage with marianne and what to look for when considering a fish to breed i present you with "mongkut 2". the offspring who would be king. at first, all i was worried about when considering an heir was colour but after talking it over i realized how important finnage is, especially now that IBC standards in regards to crowntails have been tightened. i think this guy has some of the qualities deemed desirable. he is still only 3 months old (and his rays have still to grow out) but i think i've already found a worthy female with the same quality finnage as him.

OMG, He's stunning!

Good luck with breeding him! I know he's going to be father to some gorgeous offspring.

great pic, what kind of camera do you have, was it really expensive?

 

[bkk_group]

thanks , we recently bought a fuji finepix 5000 (reasonably priced too i might add). my wife did some experimenting with different settings and used "shutter priority" instead of "auto" (like we normally use) on this pic.

Now *that* is a beautiful fish.
I love crowntails and that one is a beauty. It will be fascinating to see what offspring he produces. Interesting times ahead for you for sure!
