    You have a very nice collection going there @keith1964. You must be proud. Congrats my friend. That last pic, the black blue with red is very nice. I'll post mine I'm getting next weekend, also got some very nice Rose tail HM male's.

    Before I start with the import collection I first want to start my own line breeding and see what colours I can get from the current stock I have. Them move over to the imported ones which will be my aim. I have been in contact with Altum, will be set-up an appointment with him after with winter period.
