Earlier this year I was fortunate to source a pair of A. cacatouides double reds (German) which bred soon after arriving. The off-spring are simply beautiful fish. However, I then sourced another pair (also German) to match up with those I had bred so I would not be in-breeding. The new additions are vastly different to my original fish. The new comers are paler in the body and the red in their finnage is, well. looks like its been painted on. On 1 occasion, some weeks back, I stumbled upon an adult speciemn in a LFS and noted that it had a broader head and thicker lips to those I originally sourced & bred. Can anybody offer an eaboration upon the 2 distinctly different fish ?
Thanks
