Video on day 2
Hey discus peeps,
So I on Wednesday night I talked to Darwin immediately after he posted his sale on facebook about a Mystique Red I saw and wanted to purchase. I placed the order that night, it shipped the next day, and I had the fish on Friday... talk about a quick turnaround and customer service lol.
I plan to cross this fish (reportedly female, and I believe it is) with a male Santarem that I use for breeding already. Hopefully it works out and I create some interesting fry!
This first video of the fish in the bag still is literally just after I took it out of the box and out of several layers of bags..... it didn't look even a tiny bit stressed nor did it look like it just got shipped from California to NJ lol... was amazed at how good this fish looked still in the bag to I took a quick video to share.

Sorry for the angle of the video, I forgot to do it horizontally on my phone.

Wow stroking color love the red black red halos going on there. The face almost seems blue?

Great looking lady!
Did you pay the extra 10% for the wysiwyg option and pick that one out or do you think the red coverage is fairly typical for the strain? I'm thinking about picking up a group of four or six 4 inch fish and I'm thinking about paying the extra to pick out high coverage fish. Since I'm a premium member here it'll even out to paying normal retail price. I saw one of their pairs and one of the fish had pretty poor red coverage.
