    Those are some gorgeous F1's. I always thought that white or Snow White was dominant though.

    Awesome Rick..... how did they get the Yellow/Gold sheen? I believe that the Snow Leopard is a Leopard ×Snow White Cross.... whilst the Red White is a Snow White ×San Merah cross... where did the Yellow come from?

    While a red/white can be made by crossing a snow white with a san marah (if the snow white has a pb gene as well-most do), the snow leopard is a bit more complicated, it is actually a golden based fish.
