Re: Pitch Black Rams from “Tom Muller/Coralbandit”
Nice ! You can see the colors they will be already !
Looks like a good mix of black and gold ..Maybe more black then 50/50 ?
I hope some turn Pitch Black for you ..

Thanks Tom ! Definitely I see more black than gold I'm guessing 60/40. These guys are great parents! Do you know how many could turn out to be pitch black ? Also the gold rams I got from you do they also produce a few pitch blacs ?

The golds will not produce Pitch Blacks if bred to each other but will if bred with a black .
They used the golds to strengthen the blood line since they were massively line bred and also like the double dark angels to remove the markings the original ram had .
60/40 is good .Over 50/50 means the black is dominant .I would guess one quarter of the blacks could be Pitch Black or dark ?

Very nice ! this is very interesting. More and more I'm learning, I see why pitch blacks are pricey ! and well worth my money on these beauties.

Lol Peewee!! I've actually never been one to back down from a challenge or something new. I just have had no fish other than discus for the previous 12 years or so. I got a couple other pair of rams from Tom last week but realized after seeing these pitch black rams that I had to get some!

These guys are tough to breed if they don't want to cooperate .I am whipped by my fish since I have rams for 7+ years so what most people think is extra or double duty is just what it takes if want success.
I really love breeding fish especially when I working fish few others have .I am very quality focused so those who get my fish get very good fish .

And that is the great satisfaction, Tom. Working diligent and in the end producing that which is uncommon. You, Al, Liz all striving to produce something that unusual. Great job!
Re: Pitch Black Rams from “Tom Muller/Coralbandit”
Really great group you have! Toms rams are the best!
I am growing out a large group of his EBR/GBR hybrids at the moment. They appear to be much more robust than the last 3 spawns of fry I have raised of the blacks.
Looks like I have some golds in this mix as well.
Congrats and great job!
