              I have been meaning to take pics of them, just haven't yet. I can get some tonite. An the males are solid black(shows dark blue hugh under HIGH light), females are dark grey bodied with black fins. All mine are extended dorsal as well.

                    I could spare one pair...the rest are already spoken for. I have males an females separated, an I would get a male an female from different parents for you so they would not be imbred. These will be breeding age just barely. The male would just be coloring up good, an I could put the female in my breeder tank to get her prehit by another outside male so your first drop could be kept to outcross with both male an female.
                    I also have these...which I have been working with for over a year now. They are HB Black Ray, an are simply wonderful, an VERY hardy. Will not eat thier young either as the moscows will try to eat the babies unless you have LOTS of cover. Pictured are breeding age fishes from to different spawns, the only difference is one male is 3 weeks younger, so you can see how they "transform" into better color an rays.

                              Thanks! Its been a long time working on them. And especially making them as bright as they are, with the dominant black ray tails.
