It's a "Hope to Create". I'm eager to see results/progress myself. If there is ever any progress/results, with the permission of them, I will post a thread about them

Sorry for any misinformation above. I was typing really fast. It was time to go home from work

Sort of. We, aquarists, have been doing this for centuries. We just now started selective breeding in marine fish though. Take these examples below. For what it's worth, the pictures posted above are only the tip of the iceberg as far as aquaculturing specimens go. Also, for something even more wilder, read up on Coral Fusing and Grafting; the ability to fuse two different colored specimens of the same species to make a new coral.

We have selectively bred many fish in order to make them different.

Siamese Fighting Fish (Betta splendens)

Wild Betta

Modern Betta

Fancy Guppy (Poecilia reticulata)

Coral Fusion

Montipora digitata
