Bruce, they are lookin great. I don't mean to take over your thread or anything, but I'm gonna post a couple pics of my reds (F1 reds, aka, Alencer x Santarem).....from the same spawn as yours. The ones from the same spawn as Bruce's are the fish with the blue striation on their faces.....the others are a different cross with the same male, but different female.......San Merah x Santarem.

Nice fish guys. You get them from Mike? Frank

Thanks Frank. Yes, our fish came from Mike Wells. I forgot to mention before that i already seem to have a pair.....two of my alencer x santarem. They have spawned twice, and even protected the eggs for up to 3 days, but so far have eaten them. I'm not worried though, as they are still very young, so i don't expect to see any fry for at least a couple more months.

Bruce and Tyler - Great looking fish !

Bruce I like the deep red color - it should get deeper red with age.

Tyler - I like the shape of your group - nice and round!!
