    Just type in aquarium thermometer on eBay. And scroll till they come up. I've got them for as little as $1.81. They come from China

    Yes Pat, the large male is a heckle cross from Dex, via Tara.

    Keep up with the posts, I have been told that heckle bar would only show on a small percentage of fry. I know nothing about this so I can only repeat what I have been told. Heck I can't even ask a intelligent question about breeding these. So I will be watching carefully your experiment and the outcome.
