    Default Curipera X

    The funny thing about this is this was to be the one purebred fish I was going to work with. I jumped on the chance to get a pair of these a soon as they hit Kenny's first listing. I was then lucky enough to have them succefully breed within one week of recieving them. Long story short, after about 4 days it started to become obviouos these were not purebred curi's. I guess some things were just meant to be









    Hmm, white fry?

    While I cannot be sure, I beleive these were bred with a fully patterned golden, and these F2's are the result. What I would like to do is selectively breed these to do my best to get as close back to the orignal curipera as possible.

    Beautiful fish! Keep us posted. So what are they (the babies) supposed to be called? I am still confused on all the naming business.

    I really like this one. Any thought to crossing this guy with your ARSGxVirgin Reds?

    Are you going to try and cross these to browns or back to each other?
