These are the four lavender Telescopes. Some with chocolate some not. The bigger one with lots of chocolate is a male, not sure about the other three yet. I have to get a new light as the one in there is old and tends to give them a greenish tint in pics.

Thanks Jed! They are also in a 55 gallon. And I'm hoping to resist adding anymore here as well, lol.

I already have two 30 gal, a 20 and a 100 gal stock tank sitting empty in the basement,rofl. :-P

I hope so too. And I doubt I'll get into breeding as a serious thing but might try saving a few fry now and again.

How did I miss that beautiful one too? So beautiful... I wish decoration doesn't give problem to their big eyes.

I'm thinking about taking those decorations out as the smaller guys grow. They don't have the huge eyes that my four other Tele's do but they still stick out. Right now they have plenty of room and so far haven't been bumping into them.

Kathy, it's time to fill that 100 gallon tank! What are your plans?

Truthfully, I have none. I rarely plan anything out. Just take notions and off I go, lol. The 20 & 30's are from my upgrading to the 55's. I spotted the stock tank on E-Bay for $50 and couldn't pass up such a good deal. The guy was using it as a sump so already has a drain pipe which is handy. Just one of those might come in handy some day things. If I decide to try and save some fry from the Lavender's, other Telescopes or Oranda's come spring (if they are cooperating) I figure it would make a great grow out tank for the summer. For now at least the tanks and fish I have are more than enough to tend to. :exact:

Kathy,

If you breed those "ryukins/veiltails", that tank will be perfect. :yess:
