The red neon blue eyed rainbows are indeed super cool. If I could handle small fish I would be over the head with desire for them.

I can't handle anything smaller that Apistos. I tried Angels but found them too easy to breed. Right now, as well as breeding my Blue SS Discus, I'm breeding Pitch Black Rams and Dutch Blues which is almost too easy except there is a good market for the Pitch Blacks.

Curious just how good the market is for pitch black rams. I know new and different sells, but personally every black ram I have seen just doesn’t move me. Probably I would feel the same way about a pitch black discus, maybe just not my thing.

The Pitch Black Rams don't ring my bell, either. The Dutch and German Blues are much more beautiful fish IMO. But the Pitch Blacks reach breeding age at 4 months and pairs sell on AB for $65. per pair. They're way easy to sex and any male put with any female will almost always spawn. The Black Rams support my Discus habit.

I have a pair of black Angels that breed like rats as well...they've laid probably 30 times and eaten the eggs 30 times. No big deal, not interested in raising angels, or Angels in general for that matter. Very few I see that interest me.
German blue rams are one of my favorites and it's unusual for me to not have any. Full of character. 'Some' golds get me pretty worked up also, but Blacks...meh...
Love me some apisto's also. Haven't had any in a while...the last I had/attempted where Apistogramma Agassizii. Didn't last long though because they were complete psycho terrors. I don't have the time or room for species only tanks, so away they went.

Not for me at all. Not a fan of long fin varieties either(of most species). In general I tend to lean heavily towards wild and 'closer to wild' in regards to body form and color variations.
Pigeon blood Discus are nothing but a tragedy...right from day one.
Body shape variations, balloons etc. in any species are just plain wrong also imo.

[LizStreithorst]

It is a very nice fish, indeed. I'm just in the Muffin's corner on this. It's actually just a matter of taste.

[Hicgup]

The worst are long fin Oscars and in the salt water arena long fin clownfish. Both always look like a tattered old flag.

And a local wholesaler sell a LOT of Angel Rams, aka Balloons, but I refuse to breed them even though I could make a good profit. I would breed pitch black rams though, even though they are not my thing if I could sell as many as I could produce.

[Hicgup]

And how about Glo Fish? A pet shop owner recently told me the patent expired. Any thoughts?

If you're interested in getting a pair or two, shoot me a PM.

I like the pitch black rams. Unfortunately, all mine are interested in doing is eating and eating and eating...

[LizStreithorst]

If you want some of mine who breed like flies just PM me. They sell very well on AB. For anyone who can breed Discus, these should be a piece of cake.
