BONSIA - USUAL TRAITS:
***Information given by Jimm***

EYE COLOR: Red
COLOR: Mostly red based, some are yellow based
BODY SHAPE: Mostly round , others are kite/diamond-like shape
FINS: Same as with zz
TAIL: Same as with zz, rarely a wraptail
FLOWERLINE: Same as with zz: straight, double plums or just a few
KOK: Mostly have kok proportion to the body size
FACE FEATURE: Same as with zz
BONSIA'S ARE A MIX OF: "Same blood" ....or sibling breeding
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES: the pearls on the tail area forms a curve, & meets each other...
UN-USUAL TRAITS & EXCEPTIONS: None
LOW GRADE TRAITS IN BONSIA'S: Grows slowly


im sorry but i do see some that are not fully correct.. for it appears not to be targetted as a whole but only one fish.

EYE COLOR: Red.... could be any just like a Fh.. for Bonsais come in every strains
COLOR: .... could be as any just like any Fh
BODY SHAPE: .. now that is what classifies it as a Bonsai.. to me a bonsai is a miniature type looking Fh.. short, squooshed looking, mostly deformed at the cuadual fins or bent spines. body is unproportionated

TAIL:.. to me is mostly wrapped due to the cuadul being bent or shorten.. with the body looking almost squared like a texas having the fins covering the tail due to the steep drop of the tail area..

BONSIA'S ARE A MIX OF: and yes they are a mix of the same breed of Fh.. just more over to me they are freak of nature, deformed..

and no i dont think they grow slowly.. just that they dont grow any bigger.. ahhahah. thus a BONSAI smiliee

sorry just my two cents thumbs up

A real bonzai is a killins parrot the rest are al sbs.and sbs can be any kind of fh they are just a body shape like humans have midgets.some look deformed and some look porportionate or just smaller than there parents I only have had sbs cause I like them they grow to a good size 8 or 9 inches and not as fast as a

normal fh but fast.if u take ur time u can find a porportionate sb and not one of those deformaties that can barly swim I don't like them and they turn people off of sbs .but tell me one normal fh
