Can Albino Convicts Breed With Normal Convicts?

[twdafishguy]

I have normal convict chiclids and albino convict chiclids. Can they breed? and if so what color will the babies be?

 

[Hawkins]

im guessing the colours will be a mixture

 

[rossyt99]

Yes, I have know of instances where this has happened> you get a mix, with usually mostly the 'Normal' colours dominant.
(Although it may be different with each pair)

+ Do you know that they breed very regularly and can have 200+ eggs each time? (Have you got any takers?)

 

[helterskelter]

Yes they will cross breed as their still the same fish just different colour.

As for resualting fry it depends on the genetics of the adults. If the adults (normal) have albino geens then the fry will be mixed.
If they dont the fry will be normal but then if you breed the next generation then you get a mixture of both.

This should be moved to the cichlid section

would this post not be better in a different forum? this is the betta forum, and convicts are cichlids so probably more help available in the cichlid forum

It hasn't got anything to do with the mods?

thats because you aint got to the stage in life where things like this become NOT important, life is all exciting for you atm and when your an old swine like me things just seem really slow and its all just too much hard work, so the mods must be old too
