    Nice video Bud. Thanks for finding it and sharing it.

    I am in need of a male Red/White Snakeskin or male Golden Snakeskin. The one in the video is awesome.

    If you find one you will have found the golden ticket. Don't get your hopes up though, and if you do find one, expect to pay in excess of $1000.00 for it!

    Long story short, Jim and I have tried to aquire a male GLSS, they are extremely rare, and when they do occur the breeders don't want to sell them. This has been confirmed by both Tony Tan and Jeffery Yang.

    Typically an intermdiate male is bred to a glss female, and the males and females are seprated by phenotype, with the glss offspring being predominantly female (if not exclusively). In other words, a male glss is hard to find, and if you do manage to find one, expect to pay top dollar. A male SS red/white should not be hard to find as Jim pointed out.

    Rick

    ps we may however be able to hook you up with a few intermediates soon.

    It's a real shame the ghost-types often have terrible body shape. On a nice, round fish that coloring would be awesome.
