I Nearly Freakin' Died!

[severina]

I walked into my store today to find a bright blue crowntail betta! Thats right...you heard me! A crowntail betta in walmart! I had to grab ahold of the shelf to keep from fainting...I was so blown away. I nearly bought him...but then I thought about where I would put him considering I'm getting 7 more in a few months. Screw it! He's mine! ALL MINE! *runs back to the store at 1am in superman boxers and bunny slippers*

Btw...is the crowtail gene dominant?

This is why my hubby doesnt take me to garden centres as I come out with plastic bags with "nothing" in them!

wooooo I thought you had nearly actually died

But nice find

Wow, nice find, lucky you! The CT gene is recessive

Believe it or not...I actually went back to Walmart in my superman boxers and bunny slippers, coworkers be damned, to get that fish. As soon as I figure out how to get the pics off my camera and into my computer I'll show you all...which could take a while.

So if I bred him to anything other than a crowntail, which are the chances of any offspring being CTs? I should have paid attention in Biology.

Unless the fish you breed him to carries the CT gene, you'll get no CTs. You can potentially get a few combtails with good crowning, but they won't be full CTs.
