I wanted to take it home so bad, but i thought i'll ask the experts first. Do you fellas think it will fade like that one other kamfa, in that one thread.

Right now it looks dark from stress, not from fading. The fish is dark and the pearls are shiny, that's how I know.

That is a normal reaction. it could be sick, but I doubt it for the fins are spread & the eyes look clear. Looks to be actively swimming. to the new owner it is a nice FH!

Please care to show us the fish that looks like this before it fade or have you seen any ZZxKK fade before if so do share. Or is it all talk?

3" Frys Posts: 342 Group: Members Member #7,534 Joined: January 28, 2008	Now, now, i just wanted your opinions. I don't want no ones feelings to get hurt, and yes this beautiful fish is Julie(flowerhornsfrombeyond). I picked up a tan king kamfa from her the other week, but she has so many nice fish left. In the pics she posted up for sale didn't do some of those fish justice, they colored up and look way better in person. And I'm so lucky she moved closer to me.
