Some new Moori Dolphin ( Moori shipment)

First topic message reminder :

Got 8 of these today. They look amazing! Thanks Jack.

I'm getting a 180-200 soon and it will have 10 fronts in it do you think if I add a small school of the dolphins it would work?

For breeding purposes I would get 1M/4-5F. They get just as big as the fronts (10"-12"+) so plan accordingly. I am not planning on keeping all my fronts when I move them to the 240. I currently have (12), three of them are male...I'll probably get rid of all (3) and buy a WC male. I'm also getting (8) more dolphins, then growing them out and keeping the ones I want. I plan to only keep half of these plus locating a male Dolphin from a breeder in OK. So in the end, I plan on having Fronts: 1M/9F. Dolphins: 1M/7F.

so on fronts 1m-9f (hopefully) and dolphins 1m-3-4f in a 180-200g tank? sound good?
I'm more interested in the fronts breeding than the dolphins.... I think Jack has the dolphin market

I keep 2 males & 5 females in my tank of breeders. To keep some diversity I guess. I try to replenish the ranks with new blood once in awhile.

If you get em they will breed & I dont want the market anymore...

I just don't want to end up overstocking the tank......

Fern I think jojo has the front market wraped up lol.

I am gonna save you some big ones Jill, dont worry...

I think this big male you sent me is trying to breed with a feamale already. The male has very dark blue anal and dorsal fins with none of the 3 spots on the side . Female is about same size only not as blue and you can see The 3 spots on the side of her like some female haps tend to have. He keeps dancing and trying to get her attetion.

They are anywhere from about 6 months to a lil over a year for the bigger ones. Sounds like fishy love...
