IMO the middle female looks best, can we get a pic of the male?

I love your marble male. He's absolutely gorgeous. Not sure if even His Highness is breeding stock, though. He has a "bleeding" butterfly pattern.

While all the females are very pretty, none are suitable for breeding to him in the hope of make MM-type offspring, in my humble opinion.

Red, #1 and # 3 would not be my pick as breeders..#1 I don't like and #3 looks melano...Melano females are sterile....I'd pick the blue girl #2......

Pam, he is actually a really nice marble....Marbles don't always have the crisp BF pattern like a regular butterfly....The tend to have a more verigated pattern....I suggested this male for red...I like him...And BTW, where have you been hiding? We miss you! Can you post pics of the kids on the MM thread when you get time please....We'd love to see them.....

When does the shipment come in?

Hmm thanks MM
I'm trying to find a girl for this boy and it's driving me up the wall. I contacted one seller on AB hoping that she would have a Steel BF female but never really heard back about it <shrug>.
The shipment leaves Thailand on Friday/saterday so I'll probably get the kids Tues sometime (jumps up and down)
I'd really love a steel female to try and see if I can get more Steel fry then I would crossing him with another Royal Blue. Hmm... Opacs or platinums carry steel don't they?
Haha.

Back to AB. Thanks MM

EDIT:
P.S. Here's the red female that the Seller has available for the other boy.

I wouldn't breed him to a plat I'd breed him to a solid blue or green for the best results....

You think the green girl would be better then Female #2 above?

There was no sib available for my Boy Blue

Sounds good I got an e-mail from her after I won the auction and so far I'm very impressed with her as a seller.
