Twizzler Showing off for Sashay

This a short vid of Twizzler courting Miss Sashay, who wants nothing to do with the poor little guy.

Sorry for the light reflections...geez it was just the tank lights, don't know why it looks so bright. He won't stop moving, so he is not a good candidate for pictures.

Karen, I don't know, the breeder said "big fins, in the turquoise category ( with a number ) and a butterfly pattern" - doesn't narrow it down much, does it?

But I love watching them grow, my two crowntails, Chance and Shy-Lo, were such little guys with cute little fins, now both of them have great long fins, with double and some triple (Chance) rays at the ends of their tails, they cross over each other, they are wonderful. ( And they were Walmart rescues!!)

Hi Val,Jacqui here. Just been watching Twizzler, absolutely gorgeous. (Crying because I dont have any godfish)! Not been on to Fishlore or Facebook for some time. Cant get the hang of Facebook but it is not just the oldies that are having trouble I know a young lady of 15 who says the same. Michelle says does your little girl need a godmummy. If so, can I apply! I will forward my CV to you. He! He! Hopefully will speak to you soon.

Hi Karen....here is the link to the breeders website. Twizzler is the fish in the bottom row, last on the right..it says "soldVH"...and he is #8 in the videos.

I don't think he is a veiltail....but anyway, he is a sweetie pie. I was happy to find someone not only in Canada, but in Ontario to buy from, and it was pure happenstance that she was selling off her stock for a $5 donation!!! Otherwise, her prices are same as Aquabid/Miami Aquariums. However, it is also nice to know I can get a good healthy fish up here, since I was sure tempted many times by AB & MA - such beautiful fish.

Twizzler was certainly endowed with extra personality....

Thought you might like to have a look at her site.

I forgot to put in the link..........dahhhhhhhhh!

Jacqui...good to hear from you!! Ya, I get ya about facebook....I go on then kick myself in the butt for wasting time there.....lol. But you could jot a quick message either place, just to keep in touch, my friend!

And FYI, Sashay told me she would love you to be her godmummy.........so that settles that!!

Now we are going to have to make T=shirts with their pics, cause I am godmom to Karen's beautiful boy Dunn, and have a tank top with his gorgeous self on it..............

Hi Val, Delighted to be godmum. Let her know that I think she is gorgeous. She would make a lovely lady for Flame (who has gone to bed already). Hope you and your mum are doing well. Give her my regards. Whoever thought we would get such a thrill out of little fish. Its a pity we cannot give them little cuddles, they make you feel you want to. Speak to you again soon. Love Jacqui
