Bring them around, I will dispose of them for you.

A year on, very little you can do. 3 bars, that's a new one.

In all honesty mate. It is best to 'dispose' of low quality fish like these. Passing them onto someone else or a store only increases the chance that someone may breed from them and produce more genetically undesirable Fronty's. Nothing wrong with you keeping them for personal display though. I can understand if it is annoying to even look at them though.

Just out of interest how much did you pay for the 3 bar and crossed frontosa's?

It might have come from a secret part of the lake and has not been documented yet....


P.s
How much are you willing to sell them for, If you do sell them how much for the 3 bar?

I wouldn't think $35 is paying good money for 7 bar fronts. If I had a spare tank I would buy them off you.
