Hi friends,
yesterday I start the first outcross of my copper ctpk line. I had the problem that I got after 5 generations no better results, specially the webbing (reduction between the Rays) in the caudal will be not good. I came forward with the anal but this is not enough for me. Because I had no copper CT female I took a black CT female which I got from Salvatore Unali (Totto) from Germany. This lady made the first place on EHBBC Show in Duisburg 2011 in his categorie.
It will be interessted what comes out. Crowntails are possible too and maybe BlackCopper.
Best wishes
Axel

Hi guys,
ReplyDeletea little update. Until yet I can see 18 juvelines, but I hope they will be more.

Hi all,
ReplyDeletethey are 21 fries, but I have not enough time for the youngsters. New Job, more workshops and so on. Bad situation for breeding.

IMHO,
ReplyDeletethis is a good way because the pure (longfin) CT females have stronger web-reduction genes...
since both fish are homozygous for crowntail, then it is easier to have the shortfin expressed again
Hello EESDA,
ReplyDeleteat first welcome to this special blog. Thanks for your opinion,it´s great to read other statements about this
title.
How it looks I get longfins in this spawn, but that´s OK.
Greetings Axel!
Hi all,
Deletebecause I had problem with the water after the
water change I lost the most of the youngsters
yesterday and this morning. Only 5 betta survived
until yet, but the most of them are not looking
good. That is really sad for me.
Greetings
Axel
