Default Opaque OHM female

I bought this female at C328 last Friday. It was rather inexpensive, considering the quality, demonstrating that you need not spend too much money on a decent fish.















The a portion of the female's anal fin has been ripped off when I bought it, probably because it was kept in a tank with other females. This is the only one that really caught my eye.

Have a nice day!

Decent catch, provide the fish with the much needed care it deserves.

Thanks. I'm planning to fatten up the female in a bit. She's going to breed with my masked pastel Double tail. My male isn't really fantastic, with an uneven tail lobe and dirty color on its fins (not red wash BTW).

I hope the fry inherits the trait of this beautiful female.

Get an OHM if you intend to breed her. Remb in whites most impt is colour, she has a few cello edges so choose thick whiteness ones. Cheers and good luck!

Hi,

I have other intention with her. Not exactly replicating another opaque OHM. I have a Double tail halfmoon male which I'm breeding her to. My objective is to create my own HM line with larger dorsal.

Wish you good luck to breed your own HM line with larger dorsal.

Here is the male. I know the color is a big mismatch in any way but I'm primarily focusing on finnage for this line.
