Steelblue HMPK (CT geno) x Copper CTPK female (F3)

Hi all,
03th August this year I start a new spawn for experiment. I cross a steelblue HMPK
with CT geno which I got from Markus Bache (Germany) in Dortmund on the IBC
Show us present. I cross them with a F3 copper CTPK female of my own spawn.
The spawn was not big and I had gen defects in this spawn.The most fries had no
ventrals. Only five of them are good. I don´t know what happens, because I didn´t
feed the fries with microworms.
The youngsters are looking a little bit like green metalic but with red washed in the
fins.

sorry for the bad pictures . I made them quickly after waterchange!


Greetings Axel

  1. I think they look amazing, at least from what I see. Are you going to do an F2 or an outcross?
