It has been sometime since we last post up pictures of imported Ruby reds and
DFI captive bred premium xbacks. Here it is, our latest offering to our supporters.
All DFI premium xbacks will each bear a specially selected, golden tag number from our new
8000 series tags. These are mostly gold based xbacks, though we are not 100% sure since they are all only
6-6.5 inches. But one thing is for sure, all come with uncompromised 24 K gold intensity!
Definitions:
AAA Xback = Complete colour on the sixth row scales at 7 inches or smaller, with shinning little pearls fully developed. Availability, very rare.
AA Xback = Complete colour on the fifth row at 7 inches or smaller, little pearls rather obvious. Availability, rather rare.
Hope you would enjoy, browsing through all the beautiful pictures.

Top view of a AAA grade xback. At only 6.5 inches, note the

piece only!

The above same fish. Its very very rare that a xback of this size
have its colour fully developed. Thus, this is an exceptional
piece of fish.

The same fish again. Scales are all neatly arranged, with shinny little pearls
near the dorsal fin fully developed. Its probably a gold based xback, hence, colour
development is much faster than a Blue based one.
(We are sorry that this picture is overexposed)
