Slantula, that is true with F1 generation.

Once you crossbreed father with daughter and/or mother with son, F2 generation will bear more resemblance with their dominant parent.
It is Mendelian genetics. You can read about that here: http://www.ndsu.edu/pubweb/~mcclean/plsc431/mendel/mendel1.htm

But if that is to heady, here is a simplified link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mendelian_inheritance
The pictures are quite helpful.

id like to know how to get this variant



I saw a bunch of these today at lfs in Calgary AB Canada, they were $11 each and were very small 3 cm fin included, they were labelled as albino lf bn?? Clearly not as they dont have pink eyes, they did however have milk white skin just as in this photo... if not whiter Shocked

I have bred my brown Bn male with Albino female 1 time so far and about 12 have emerged so far and are 100% brown (i think, they are very new), will see what happens next time... also am getting albino lf male later this week, he has bristles, he hopefully will be mating with 1 of my 2 albino f Very Happy

Had 3 spawns (about 100 fry total) with common Bn and 2 female common before the above spawn and got 100% brown.

When I put my male in with my 2 f albinos, soon after i did this one of my female commons died, i suspect she was eggbound However 98% of my fry are surviving (1 got sucked in the filter and the other i found while cleaning the tank). They are 1-3 months old, I have given 6 away to friends so far Very Happy hoping to give them "the bug" Twisted Evil
