Fry "appreciation", pics Hello,
I'm attaching some pics of fry born between the 7th and the 9h of april 2005.
The parents were 1 Kohaku female x 1 Kohaku male and 3 different Sanke females x (2 Sanke+1 Kohaku) males.
There are many fry showing a rather uniform light orange colour that might turn out to be Kohaku, as expected.
Besides there are other phenotypes present. This year the proportion of black fry with yellow head remains quite low compared with the previous year. In my limited experience these black fry develop quite dark, some of them like Hi Utsuri. Last year I got just a few Showa but not worthwhile to keep.
You will see other fry that are quite puzzling. These fry often got rather skinny.
Culling Sanke is not easy at all!
