Yeah we should kill anything with different backgrounds and genes. Oh wait, that's a vast majority of America, oops. As long as you don't sell them as a pure bred fish, then I see no harm in them..

yeah i wasn't planning on selling them i would just give them away.
 
Fine to give them away, just make sure whoever you give them away to knows what they are and do your best to know their plans. I have no problems with hybrid fish, except for when they are passed off for pure species.

Horrible analogy seeing as how all humans are the sames species, as are domestic dogs and cats.

Hybrids are damaging when they are passed as pure. A great example is those that try to preserve what has been lost in the wild (Lake Victoria perhaps). When hybrid Vics are passed as pure it ruins what has been worked at to preserve. But I really don't want to sidetrack this thread more than it has been.
