Breeding BD and Pigeon

[lifan23]

Hey guys, I have a blue diamond and a tiger pigeon that paired up. My preference is that they dont breed but they are hogging up about 1/3 of my 150 gallon tank. Any suggesions on what I should do? if I did breed them what would the fry look like? I have no intentions to sell any undesirable frys.

Tiger pigeon? I raise and breed pigeon based fish pretty much exclusively but that isnt ringing a bell. Anyway, the PB gene is VERY dominant and so your resulting fry will probably not be too attractive. Thats why rarely is it recommended to cross PB away from other PB's. My guess would be that you would see primarily the pigeon based fish but with very heavy peppering.

By the way is there anyway to upload a bigger size picture? The 85kb limit only doesnt allow good quaility pictures. Thanks, I'm new to the site.
