goldenswimmers Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Thanks to some work by a super fish man(the Gaz) I have managed to get my hands on some seriously nice salvini...this nice little group of 5 were lieing away behind the scenes not getting the love they deserved and the previous owner wasn't aware of what he had in his tank...once I saw the red on these guys I had to get my hands on them....these guys will now be chunked up(underfed and don't think they have been looked after very well so another sign the previous owner didn't really have an idea about what he had)..now its time for daily massages ,good food and nice water so heres some shots of the salvini line I'll be working with in the future...some nice red in that pattern hey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmarcom Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Wow very nice matee! and your right they are from an excellent bloodline, I haven't seen red bellied salvini's for a long time now,Most of the ones here in Sydney don't look that good, even if they are kept in top condition they just don't have those beautiful markings that your ones display!Most people have told me that Salvini only get red bellies when breeding or in breeding dress, this may be true but not for all Salvini's.Your Pics are proof that good Qaulity salvini, depending from what I think which region of waters they come from have different color variations. Your Salvini's do look like they have been neglected, but look at the color on them already!! and they are only gonna get better with good food and water conditions and imagine when they are in breeding dress how good they will look ..hot hot hot !!!!Im glad they are in good hands now, good find!Please keep us posted with updates of their progress.

Buccal Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 My iPad won't alllow me to send private emails.If you breed these and want to sell and can ship to Perth, I'll grab a fair few if the time comes.Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenswimmers Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 Excellent color. I wonder how they still this colorful even without the proper care.Keep us posted with updates mate. that's what makes me think they are a very nice bloodline....I personally haven't seen red like that in a salvini...and it seems its been awhile since good red ones have been around....so its good news...now to get them sized up and in breeding condition....already looks like there is a bonded pr so fingers crossed for the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ged Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Very nice fish and I am sure that the bloodline will have a great impact on the quality of Salvini across the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlistairGJ Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Wow - really amazing stock you have there! Ditto to what Buccal said - if you get fry and are happy to ship I would be extremely interested in getting my hands on a few (also in Perth) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenswimmers Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Cheers guys and yep next stop..hopefully breedtown..only thing against me is 1 boy to 4 girls.....but only takes 2 to tango so fingers crossed..also looks like the dominant pr have found a nice piece of pottery in the tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan.t Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Ah wow, they look great! My Salvini's look washed as hell compare to these guys. And Male is more blue then anything else which is rather confusing. Good Luck with those guys, i really hope you get a strong bonded pair. Would be great to see real Salvini blood line make an appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
