What fry from this pair?

[Fishy knickers]

Hi, I "think" I have a red turq male, and an albino turq female (please correct me if I'm wrong) ....they have started spawning, but male is still eating eggs...but when they do sort it out...what kind of fry should I expect? Some weird mix or some albino, some standard red turqs?

PS, any tips on stopping the male eating the eggs as soon as they're laid? (like pac-man!!)

Many thanks

You should have ALL Regular Turqs from this pairing with I believe all fry being Albino gene carriers. Meaning that if brother was bred to sister, thier offspring should be 25% True turqs, 50% albino carriers, 25% Albino. This is all of course we Assume that the Turq male is not carrying the Albino gene.

that is not an albino, due to the eye. they look good to me though, and should have some great turk fry.

Female looks like a checker board pigeon blood.

Sometimes albino grape eyes look black in photos. It's tough to see the difference between black and grape sometimes. Do you see any black on the fish? Did you get the fish from a source you trust?

Yeah..she's not an albino...the pupil is black...and she coloured up a violet/blue later on....they're new fish to us- so wasn't sure. Why does she sometimes appear orange and white, then other times like a red turq? Especially when no aquarium lights on?
