My fish were shot with sun light or with a normal t8 flouri to give you a idea of how the red is with and without a special light.

Also most people use them to take pics of there stock to sell it to make them appear more deep red.

now i guess i just have to go buy it to see if is really that red or not

What is beneficial about keeping wild fish in your tanks? Nothing other than more fish to chose from you just hurt their species more by removing them from the wild. You're not prolonging the species or anything. Keep what you like and quit spamming the ops thread with your hate for hybrids. Red texas are certainly more rare/unique than any purebred they've been selectively bred for nice features.

To the op talk to rainybetta on aquabid if you want a faded red texas or get some fry off of cjbarth on here. He is from wisconsin and can ship you fry for cheap there is a good chance you will get something nice both of his parents are thai imports from rainnybetta and he has produced a couple really nice ones.

Hehehe!!

then there is this beauty i am deff envious of the guy with this fish looks like a red but i don't know if it is cause labeled as a green texas

Carpintis do have some natural red on them and can be fed color enhancing food to look like that

Bayarea_510, those look like good quality rt's! You should have bought at least 10 because only some will fade, those are too expensive though! I seen them on CL. you should order from cjbarth (Chris) here on mfk, he has a great quality red Texas pair from (Rainnybetta) Thailand and high quality fries from them for sale, he has great deals on rt fry!!!!
