    Sold them and made room for more fish. They would have been 4 years old in 4 days.

    darn . Do you still have any Mercury left? I always loved that strain as well as ghosts and Calico's. I always said if I ever started breeding, I'd try to incorporate one or more of those in the breeding program.

    I just stumbled across the Mercury for the first time in Kennys latest preview. They are very unique. Anyone have any photos of theirs?

    Thanks for the photo. I had been looking for a photo of a more mature Mercury. I ordered one from Kenny but did not know what to expect when it had grown out.
