Two wraps with strong hatch rates is good to hear. Are you feeding the pair live food while they're housed separately, or frozen?

Listing says the female rounds up fast on live food, so live is what I use for conditioning. Message me if you want more detail on the routine.

Do you ship the pair in one bag or separate? Betta males and females together in a box always worries me.

Listing only says ships in... and I cut it short in the preview, so message me and I'll lay out the packing for the pair. I wouldn't put them in one bag, no.

Good call on separate bags. Does the pair ship in the same box or two boxes? Asking because I'd be buying for a friend and want to tell them what to expect.

Listing only says ships in..., I cut it short, so message me and I'll lay out the box setup for the pair. Separate bags either way.

Would you consider shipping the pair in two separate boxes if the buyer asks? Just curious how you handle it, not bidding yet.

Listing doesn't spell out the box setup, so message me with your zip and I'll lay out the options. Separate bags no matter what.

thanks, will pass that along to my friend. he'll message you tonight with his zip.

Is the female well barred right now or only when she's conditioned? Thinking about the pair for a friend who keeps a small spawning setup.

Listing says she's well-barred and rounds up fast on live food, so she shows it when she's fed well. Message me and I can send a recent photo of her barring.

Is the male's red even across the body right now, or does he fade when he's stressed in transit? Asking for a friend who has been burned by washed out reds before.

Listing says heavy-bodied red dragon with full scaling, that's what I can stand behind. Message me and I'll send a fresh photo of him so you can judge the red yourself.

inkfin, this one ends tomorrow with no bids yet. Is the male's fin length typical plakat short, or does he carry any extra length on the tail?

Listing says heavy-bodied red dragon with full scaling, and it's a plakat pair so short finned. Message me and I'll send a fresh photo of him from the side so you can judge the tail yourself.

Plakat pairs with two wraps on record are rare around here. Seems underpriced at 72 honestly.

agree it looks cheap for a proven pair. bid placed.

Thanks dan. Ends tomorrow, message me if you want a fresh side photo of the male before it closes.

Is the female the one in the second photo, and does she ship in the same box as the male?

Yes, the female is the one in the second photo, and they ship together in one box. Happy to send another shot of her if you want.

Thanks inkfin, that's what I wanted to know. Watching this one.

Is the female the same age as the male, or did you pair her up from a different spawn? Curious about the lines before the auction ends.

Listing doesn't say how old either one is, it only covers the proven pair, two successful wraps, red dragon male and well-barred female. Message me and I'll tell you what I have on their spawn dates.

Gorgeous red dragon male. Do the fry from the two wraps hold the full scaling or do you get a lot of throwbacks?

Listing only says two successful wraps with strong hatch rates, red dragon male with full scaling. Message me and I'll tell you what I saw in the fry.

8 bids on a proven red dragon pair, nice. inkfin, are the fry from the wraps all plakat or did you get any long fins thrown in?

Listing doesn't cover the fry specifics, it only says two successful wraps with strong hatch rates. Message me and I'll tell you what I saw.

bid placed on the red dragon pair. inkfin, thanks for the offer to message about the fry, i'll send you a note tonight.

good luck brackishbabe, that pair is a nice one. inkfin might say more about fry by message like he offered.

thanks discusdan, sent inkfin my note a bit ago. mostly want to know if any long fins showed up in the fry before i commit more on the bid

got your message brackishbabe, replying there now with what I saw from both wraps.

bid placed. inkfin, did either wrap throw any long fins in the fry? same question brackishbabe had.

discusdan thanks for the bid. both wraps threw a few long fin fry in the first spawn, fewer in the second, and I replied to brackishbabe by message with the details. happy to send you the same notes.

inkfin thanks for the notes on the fry. is the female ok with live food only or will she take frozen bloodworm too?

discusdan she takes frozen bloodworm fine, I just lean on live because it rounds her up faster before a spawn. Thaw it first and she won't care.

inkfin what's the female's size roughly? thinking about whether she'd be paired with a male that heavy bodied.

finandfry the listing doesn't give a measurement, it only says she's well-barred and rounds up fast on live food. message me and i'll send a photo with a ruler next to her.

inkfin would the ruler photo show her bars too? curious how she'd look next to a male that heavy.

cass yes, the ruler shot will have her side on so the barring shows. message me and i'll send it tonight before the auction closes.
