here are some of the F2s. These are fish from 3-4 different spawns from last summer. The oldest males are really coming on and even the younger and less dominant fish are striking. Keep in mind the oldest fish shown here was born in may. These fish have been outside there whole lives. This tank has seen a low water temperature of 48 so far this year but we are back in a warm weather trend at it was 70 this morning. They’ll get down in the 50s for weeks at a time warm up a little get cold again warm up a little for the next 4 months.
