Dude why don't you handle them with care,? Pretty much threw them back in the bucket. Geezuz

You don't even have to respond to such comments. It's your business, you can run it how you want and from what i've seen, you produce excellent variety of healthy looking fish. A lot of us also learn from your fish knowledge and enthusiasm.

Hi Chuck - I am surprised at the small size of the overbite on your "Gold" fuelleborni. According to a discussion with Ad Konings - the overbite on Labeotropheus is genetic and then enlarged due to abrasion from feeding on rocky surfaces. Much like developing a callused hands from repeated hard work. However I have seen in aquaria a reduction in the size of the overbite from 2 sources: One - inbreeding, and Two - hybridization with the Red zebra. I have also observed smaller overbites on tank raised fish which don't need to constantly graze but it is still quite prominent.

Love the video - you are correct - the fish was discovered by Friedrich Fülleborn. He was a Dr who specialized in tropical medicine and parasitology. He also has a chameleon - Trioceros fuelleborni, a bird - Macronyx fuelleborni, and a moth - Neocoenyra fulleborni - named after him. Cool legacy.

Really nice fish

Thanks for clearing up the single i sounding like an e 😊

Another pretty cichlid. Thanks for the video.

I just love how you try to educate with every single sentence you say! Sir, i'm a lifelong fan and this is a beautiful fish. ❤

❤❤❤

Stinky feet?

Nice looking fish, How do you keep your mollies nice and healthy some of mine seem to get sunken bellies

I've never owned a parrot fish in my life but thank you for the lessons on their genetics.

That full bucket of dead fish how much value was in it ?

It looked like the caudal fin of the wag color also had long fin expression.

Hi Charles, I know you are the expert, but I believe I have some insight on this, first of all these fish don’t have any parrot blood in them in the trade they were called polar blue parrots, but they just have a short body mutation for 1 , the second mutation is the one that makes her face scrunched up and looks like it does. Also, from what I found out from reading these are they’re actually not convicts that these mutations originated in, but Hur and red points. The fish that you were braiding have been mixed, which is why you’re getting the darker coloration of convicts, the lighter coloration or the more, aqua color that you’re calling is the coloration of the Honduran red points, I got the same colors and I also got the ones that were half dark and half light, like the ones that you are calling wag. I have a whole Lotta pictures and input on this if you are interested, unfortunately, I had several pairs of the different variations that I got that were killed in the freeze we had last year.

I ended up with a pollar blue one through a trade. Didn't think I would like him, but he's won me over. Very cute entertaining fish. Interesting to learn more about the genetics.

Pink wag would be really cool.

Once again your videos are amazing. Thanks again for creating them. We all learn so much.

Did you come up with the naming convention for the fish types and colors? I've always heard of them called, Polar blue's for the black parrots and Platinum's for the pinks! Didn't realize there where so many more variations in-between! Also, I have both the black and pink parrots, with one good mixed pair that lays often, but I've noticed they mainly only have the polar blues. I got lucky only once with the platinum's popping up on one cycle of eggs... The genetic favorability is defiantly favoring the polar blues...

Goliad is doing it right, you guys have snakes breading there, fish breading at you feet...amazing

Thanks for the video. Very interesting. Can’t wait find out more.

I like them!

Interesting problem. This will be fun to follow.

Great video, thank you! It is going to be interesting to see what those Pink x Aqua test breedings produce. Normal expectation would be normal blue double hets... but since they are from the same founding stock, there's likely to be a pink het aqua, or aqua het pink in the mix, giving you some visuals in the test cross, of one, both, or maybe even the combined phenotype of Pink + Aqua in one fish.

Awesome. Thanks for the video.

I don't love parrot fish, but I love the genetics lesson.

Thanks interesting information. Thanks for sharing

Thank you for the lesson. Truly a pleasure to learn genetics from you Charles!

Any update on this line ?

Very nice!!

Outstanding Beauty!! 😅👍🏻👍🏻

Poaching Mollies. I love your stories about gorilla fish keeping 😂. Very interesting about the leaf litter causing infertility and in my opinion completely plausible. Also wild to hear that about the mesquite leaves! Could the ground water be contaminated with jettisoned cartel product?… I appreciate your videos. God speed

I only kept Mollies once, many years ago. These are gorgeous! I am a fan of the Wag varieties 😊

RIP Fred the Raccoon.

I wish you all the luck because those things were gorgeous.

Have you put out a request of your customers if someone has the strain can they give you some back? Of course you would pay for them but you would get them back.

Hi Charles. Do you ever buy new breeder fish, to put into a existing breeder coloni?

The fish are methed up. 😂😂😂😂😵‍💫 🐟

Charles this was very interesting. Any idea why they are called “wag”? What makes them a “wag”? What is the difference between sail fin, high fin and variatus? I absolutely love platys and really enjoy your videos and wealth of knowledge that you freely share! Thank you!

I love your Science moments. your just the best sir. 👍

Fascinating as always. Thanks for the video .

These are beautiful fish! Looking forward to watching your progress in this line.

Awesome. Thanks for the video.

I think thats cool that the gold line of your Molly's all get there gold color from the one gold male years ago

Mollie's were a lot of we older peoples first fish. I love mollie's. Thanks for the up date !

I wonder if there may have been some differences in pH between the two houses that caused the breeding issues. Assuming the light and temps were the same, that's about the only other major difference I can think may cause issues. Cheers from North Florida!

Thanks for the video. I really admire your persistence. I think it would be really easy to give up on that strain of mollies after you lost the original breeders.

Those are awesome

I enjoy your videos explaining how you choose your breeders.
