| hey stranger, where you been?
Nice to see you back here posting.
keep in mind with shiros that the first 2 years the patterns and your ability to see their development is hindered because they are in transistion.
if your water is soft with lower kh/gh you might want to get one with somewhat of an established looking pattern. If your water is harder you can get one that is whiter but when you look at the black you can see a blue-black for what's showing.
I'm a sucker for the smaller white ones which usually turn out nice in my water. It's just that it takes awhile.
if you have room in your pond you might want to try a dark one and a light one and see how they develop. |
