Thanks for the responses. I was worried it was me. I am trying them again. I have 3 females (1 blue and 3 red) and a blue and red male. Unfortunately 2 of the 3 females have pectoral fins on one side that seem to be jointed in the wrong direction. So I didn’t want to breed them. Is this likely genetic or due to damage? In any case I am giving the same pairs another shot at breeding as we speak. Maybe a little Marvin Gaye background music. I’ll let you know what happens.
