All natural vs. selective bred phenotypes... do you have a preferece and why?

I think they are ok. I don't love them but I don't hate them... as long as the weird ones aren't deformed. Many have weird bodies (short bodies), many seem to have weird jaw structures (REALLY common in Arowanas it seems) and they just look off. I think when you start messing with the structure of the fish, either on purpose or not, it takes away from the fish as a whole and they look stupid.

I once saw this aro with a very much undershut jaw (like the ones of a bulldog). Honestly at first I thought that maybe there was an accident that caused its deformity, but then the owner told me that it was just natural and that the jaw grew bigger as the fish grew. Well I just wanna ask you guys if this fact is a sample effect of inbreeding / captive bred fish?

i just hate it when fish that should be culled become popular. JKJK.

i dont mind keeping all the "deformities" like short bodies and albinos etc.
theyre still fish and still act the same as any natural.
but i would prefer naturals over them any day.
it just doesnt seem right having totally white fish swimming around in my tank....
i guess its because i like the "natural" setup.
