    OUTSTANDING photos Paul and that pair is STUNNING. I have to be honest, I generally do not like red/white fish at all but that one you have is quite a looker. I wouldn't mind having it!

    Take care and excellent job with the updates!

    Hi Paul,

    I was over at Aprils sponsor section , and noticed this post. Looks like a fairly similar cross to your own. Post 19 on that thread, some good info.

    Updated pics look great, fingers crossed for you.

    Hi April, you're welcome on any thread of mine. Most of the fry seem to be pale, perhaps 25% are darker so once I've managed to grow them out a bit Rod can get to work btw nice albino!
    Paul

    Comfortably numb.

    I know I am bringing this back from the dead, But I am researching snow white crosses with brown discus and would really like to know the results if at all available.
