Default Short-Bodied Convict
I've had this fella for a while now, randy little so and so, i believe its a cross between a male convict and female parrot. These fish genetically do not get very big. I think he's a real stunner, but not everyone will agree i am sure!

he's adorable, lovely finnage, photo's dont do him justice, got him from Maidenhead Aquatics Popey, he's got a female partner in there, she's a bit smaller with a really bright orange belly.

when i do the change over i will get pics up the origional 2ft is looking quite good the live plants are growing really well and bushing out!!! my son lost one of his fish last week so he now only has 2 small fancys in the bow front so they will now be moving to the 2ftx1ft x15" and his bigger tank is going tropical. im going for black gravel and a black background which im hoping will bring out the colours of the fish.
