RonnyM Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Hi all, I was given this pair of JDs a while ago. Prior to getting them, they were kept in poor conditions in a shop and were just sad and stressed. The "keeper" that had them said the male was a dud and was sterile so couldn't fertilise the eggs. Luckily, they were given to me to confirm wether they could breed or not. Even more luckier, they were het for EB gene :DThey have become my favourite air of fish and have produced lots of little EBJDs for me CheersRonnyM.

undercoverbrother Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 can tell they have been looked after well, nice shots and fish - keep up the good work.have you found the EBJDs to be "weak" as some fish keepers proclaim or is that just an excuse people use.

Buccal Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Again, amazing, good way to sales pitch your fish to,,, who wouldn't want your fish ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 This is after the normal/het JDs have been taken out - RonnyM.At what size can you pick the difference between the EBJDs and the normal ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonnyM Posted July 29, 2015 Author Share Posted July 29, 2015 At what size can you pick the difference between the EBJDs and the normal ones?I can pick em out at around 7mm. It's trucky at first but gets easy the more you do it. Always takes a few hours though lol. CheersRonnyM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dempsey Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Mine used to always go BLACK like your female, Is it because of being Split gene You think - he keeps his reflectiveness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ged Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Ronny the video shows the paternal instinct of the pair. I like the glimpse of the tank layout. Have you got a whole tank photo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonnyM Posted August 4, 2015 Author Share Posted August 4, 2015 Mine used to always go BLACK like your female, Is it because of being Split gene You think - he keeps his reflectiveness Going black is normal for JDs. It can come and go depending on mood, dominance, breeding etc. Nothing to do with bwing het for blue gene.Ronny the video shows the paternal instinct of the pair. I like the glimpse of the tank layout. Have you got a whole tank photo?Will post a full tank shot when I get home CheersRonnyM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
