There is a difference between inbreeding and selective inbreeding. One can get out of control, and usually gets bad results futher down the line. The other isolates and 'amplifies' the desired trait. Really kewl really. Me Pa breeds kingsnakes, milksnakes, and used to do cornsnakes. He used to inbreed them to isolate certain traits....hes gotten some VERY nice snakes because of it...
. But i hear yaz, inbreeding is touchy. As long as you 'outbreed' the offspring and don't inbreed them too much it shouldn't affect the offspring.
Dont worry about that, they will be fine. I have a 8" tiger, 4" retic and 10" motoro in water with a pH of 8.4-8.6, and hardness off the charts. Mine are doing fine and growing like weeds.
WHOA!! For reals? Your not trixin? Thats awesome! I have never attempted to try rays, always been to worried that they need the softer, lower pH waters. Do you have to do water changes a lot? Hmm...i think this will be my next conquest!
