Hello Rui, thanks for share the videos with us. The youngsters grow good and of course they are longfins. But the problem what I see, they have not a good reduction in their fins. So you can get problems in the next generations. Special the males show this problem, but I cross my fingers for good results in the F2 generation. Have luck my friend. ;))
Hi Rui, that´s a possibility. How Kiel said, the best you work with two different lines. Better will be when you can get a ctpk female which come out from a shortfin spawn. The most problem in ctpk spawns will be the reduction in the finnage and long anal fins.

You can opt for developing two lines from that...one is an F2 and the other will be outcross to HMPK
ReplyDeleteI think i will rey that, use the best pair of the fry to go f2 and try, a good female with a hmpk male. Too see how it comes.
