Nambulas - What do people think of this new strain.

[flukes]

Not sure if it can be called a new strain yet as i dont know if it breeds true but just wanted other peoples opions on this fish.

Personlly i dont like it, i think discus have a greater potenial for more intresting and colors and patterns.

[DiscusMad]

I'm with flukes but I have seen these before on a U.S web site

[Proteus]

I personally prefer consistent patterning or markings...

they look a bit.... ummmm, not right...

[kevkoi]

... and we have 5 of these fish at SLS atm. JUST for something different.

[Mattzilla]

i don't think they look too bad actually. i have heard them been called calicos before.

some of them look great but some look shit.... you get this with such drastic crosses i guess.

[sunshinediscus]

I like them.

[flukes]

Matt the calicos apparently has 2 colors and the nambulas has 3, from what ive been told. I think the calicos doesnt have the blue tinge on the fins where as the nambulas does, i could be wrong.

Does anyone know if it breeds true??

Iam sure if they are selling out of penang they have the gene stable.

[nicholas76]

I have read a web site dedicated to the producer of this fish and the fish itself. Calicos are diffrent

cant recall exactly dammm,,,, ill have to start looking for that url
