Because I used to visit a farm every week and that farm poduced lots of a axanthic. I saw them from nusery stage to adult stage. As I said they can be replicated. Unlike snow or platinum aro. Nowadays when I walk pass an a axanthic aro I wont even turn back to take a second look. Maybe in USA you guys never seen one before. i gain nothing besides sharing my opinion about this fish.
I already said I have seen axanthic silver in Singapore before and I saw a few of them. But you guys claimed I was talking empty without proof. Many said this is a new strain.. First in the world kind.. But the fact is out. Some bro produced some photo of an axanthic. Its not first in the world . Perhaps first in USA I agree.
someone suggested I should quit when I commented that Vince aro is just black eyed albino silver. One look at the pic posted by Vince I already know what it is. talk about quitting..
The above were the 2 points we debated about.
This statement proves that you don't know what your talking about. Never mind up until now you said you saw them in a store a long time ago that's now closed now all of sudden you've been to farms where Xanthics are raised? The fact that you claim Snows and Platinums can't be reproduced proves you know nothing about Aro's. All genetic abnormalities can be reproduced. Where do you think your Aro came from? Thin air? Some of them just mysteriously appeared one night in only certain stores in one location in the world and are completely without sex or reproductive organs and therefore can't be reproduced and by luck you grabbed one of these magical one of a kind miracle animals.
Well since you've been to farms please do tell about Silver Aro breeding. How's it accomplished? How do they produce Xanthics? Is it a dominant or recessive trait. Since you know how they can be replicated have even witnessed it first hand these questions should be easy to answer. I and the rest of the community would love to be enlightened by you so we can grow like you appreciated it when you learned how to remove ice from a typical ice tray just recently from that old woman.
You say you see them all the time but choose to not take any pics to prove your case. How hard is it to whip out your phone just to provide proof?
By the way as slayer5590 said Xanthic and Axanthic are 2 different things. I hadn't cleared up that myself because the OP also used the term and didn't want to correct anyone since there was already a lot of confusion going on. Xanthic is an animal that expresses more yellow then usual while Axanthic is the opposite an animal lacking or devoid of yellow coloration. Though I'll also state I'm almost positive KEVINFONG doesn't know what either means so I doubt that's the source of his confusion. The pictures of the animals and him saying he seen similar have been his only form of reference not the actual meanings of the names of the morphs. Case in point he has a snow but doesn't know what that means except that it's rare and matte white in color like chalk.
No snow and platinum are adjectives used to represent genetic abnormalities. They are used because those names are marketable. The difference isn't about looks alone otherwise if I used a procedure to strip the color off an Aro I could call it a platinum or snow depending on whether it retained it's metallic shine or not. The fact that you ignore the genetics of the fish shows how little you actually know about them. It is there genetics not just a fishes color that makes them rare.
' but snow silver aros do not cost 100,000. Your defective snow came in the same box along with my king platinum short body gar.. you should reference this to the person who sold you your snow aro. And nice panda xbs still demand upwards of 1500 usd.
