    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

    IMG_3040.jpg

    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!

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

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