DC, honestly i do not think any crazy patterns will result. prob. the majority will be percs, maybe onyx, with small percentage having odd patterns, hopefully if the picasso traits are dominant.
But i think in reality its just hard to predict. there are so many variable involved. I have other interesting parings that should result in more wild patterns than these. My best hope for this pair is with the RODonyx male. After talking to rod, he mentioned he has heard others with his clowns spawning, but no one has attempted to raise them. I m hoping the strong black typical of rods clowns push thru.
This is my test pair. so i can learn the process first-hand. So im crossing my fingers. There are around 200-300 babies in this first batch it appears. The male is now busy oxygenating the babies.
I have no intention of selling the babies, im in the hobby for the enjoyment the clowns give me and the challenge of the process. so please respect my thoughts at this time.
