Not a very good representation of actually fish. Photoshop should not be allowed on this because it's misleading to others.I've seen so may Turk but they are not even close to that.

@warblad79 the photos I post on Simply Discus are not photoshoped or edited with any app (I can add full format photos with an EXIF data), all photos are taken with a smartphone (latest with an iPhone 5s)

SD Admins and mods, if you think that this photos are not representing the strain please delete the post

I am pretty sure his lighting is heavy on blue LED's - true Pece?

@Greg you are right , first 3 photos are taken with blue and red LEDs on. My light is a DIY Power Led fixture, 3x10W white (2x10.000K and 1x6.500K), 8x1W red and 8x1W blue, all with dimmers and they never run on 100% (blues and reds are at 25% max).

Here is one photo of the same fish with only white LEDs on

I will say once more, if you find this post misleading please delete it

To me it is not misleading at all - I knew what it was and appreciated the super sharp blue the lighting gave the fish.

Neat photo!

Definitely looks like the LED blues affected original shots. Nice fish :)

Now that is one beautiful fish! Would you by chance have any fry from this strain, or would you have a pair of these for sale, or maybe you just want to give them to me. I'm a poor boy! LOL!!! Really I am!

[Kwiege]

I think that fish looks awesome!! Photoshopped or not still beautiful! Get a life people!

[LizStreithorst]

The fish is excellent. How old was it when you bought it and who did you get it from?

[danotaylor]

Not sure we're gonna get any new info here...the orig activity on this thread was in Feb 2015 and OP's last activity in SD was 11/28/18...

I like that fish (i know it's an old thread). It's amazing how different lighting can make some fish really pop!

[LizStreithorst]

LOL I usually notice that kind of thing.

Unlike any thing I've seen and so far from what God created, oh my
