Quick Update - Mrs Latezonatus

[MJI]

Hey guys,

Just to let you know my female lat remains, and is doing super well.

She eats anythign I can chuck at her, hand feeds, and is such a pig she follows me round the tank!

You'd swear she was tank bred! :lol:

Gonna try and get some good shot up for you all soon, keep watching!

Oh - and the season's best to you all!

That's good news Mike

May the new year treat you and yours kindly.

Sorry it's taken so long to get some pics up - the festive period was a bit of a mix.

Anyway, here's some pics of her as of today:

Cheers all, and hope 2006 s good to you all!

Very nice. I love the blue lip. Do all Lats have that or is it a regional or maturity thing?

Not all... According to wodonga at least, the mainland vareity usualy has a pink snout, rather than blue.....

Got to say, the females blue lips are nowhere near as blue as the juvy/males were.

She's a Beaut, is that a magnifica with her?

It is indeed, it was very bleached when I got it, very bleached, but now recovering some zoo I'm glad to say - pic attached showing the speckles:
