Ok for years I always enjoyed breeding stripped cons to pink cons simply to see 2 different fish in my tank with the bonus of getting babies down the road. As an experiment I have crossed jelly beans to stripped cons then JB's to blue cons, and Jb's to marble cons. The one time I crossed Jb's to blue cons they actually came out a little stumpier. Sadly each time I had babies I had for what ever reason had to move and gave the spawn away never being able to take a crossed fish and breed it back again to another Jellybean. I am in hopes of making this happen.
Right now I have jb crossed with marble/hrp's and with the fry I will cross them back to jb in hopes of getting jbs soon with some color(thats the plan).
I know the jelly bean body is a co ressesive gene needing to be in both mother and father. I have bred jb to pink cons, the end result look like regular cons ( possibly a bit larger stomach area). Hopefully this will work out soon , at least its fun trying...it just kills me waiting to see however.!!!
Anyone else out there ever work on a breeding experiment such as this??
