thanks guys, will keep posting updates (if they live). wouldn't recommend getting them at this size and condition, to anyone. Quality is not too hot either. Hopefully they'll grown out fine.
can anyone shed some light on how dominant the vertical stripes are ?? say X blue diamond or X rsg .

Hi Samir,
Cool heckles mate, best of luck with conditioning them back to good health ... if they are starting to eat I think you should be fine with them.
In regards to breeding them with other strains, from all accounts of what I have read in the past ... the heckle bar tends to fade/disapate with each generation ... again that's only what I have read in the past. I'm also led to believe that breeding heckle to heckle is hard and is best to keep them at a low PH with super soft water if that's your intention with them.
I'm sure you would get some pretty nice spawns if you cross breed them, I guess it would just come down to how many fry in each spawn would carry a nice strong heckle bar. Good luck and keep us posted on how they condition up !
Cheers,
Dee.

the stripes are very dominant,when you bred intermediate heckels with say RT's you will still have the bar i think schmidt-focke tryed to breed them out.... without succses,the colours the F3 F4 show are stunning but this big black bar in the middle was a bit odd.IMO heckel schouldnt be mixed with other colour strains,but thats just my opinion.
