    two very pronounced males, all 3 are males but I do have a few other females if they like, I did see some courtship between the front male in the pic and my blushing blue koi female angel yesterday and all evening last night.

    Ill get new pics tomorrow, they are pairing off now and they did pick some of the prettier females in the tank to court.

    there are 3 of them, they used to be larry.moe and curly but they grew up into the blues brothers( jake/elwood and the scat man)

    You have the skill, that's for sure. Did you find them with a breeder where you live? You know how to pick em.

    actually, they cost me a dollar DONATIOn a piece from a local petco. guy dropped off 5+ 5g buckets full of half dime size angels at their doorstep a week or so before last thanksgiving. I had a friend get them for me and meet me halfway (hour drive for both of us) I really didnt pick out any buy my blue kois and my larger breeding pair.

    edit, i also take a magnifying glass when I pick out fish. The LFS hates me because I find defects in his "flawless" livestock
