There seems to be a LOT of sb fry in this batch, I should get tons of nice females, hopefully some like the mom, with that awesome kk shape.
 
You are going to get some really nice fish out of these!!!! With the Midas/Devil genes...and the parrot genes...you may get some mammon like KKP!! You never know!! Subscribed!!!
 
Thats exactly what I'm hoping for cjbarth, if it's possible I'd like to try and create a mammon type fish thats fertile.
 
I have a few other species in mind for this project. The bifas I already have and Vieja melanurus "lago peten", a very red/orange Vieja species that some say is just a diff morph of synspila, they're very related to one another.
And of course somewhere along the line true midas will be crossed in, not another typical lfs Midas X Red Devil like the father of the current fry. I think a true Midas will give a much stockier shape to the strain, and way more kok.
 
If I cross these fry to a Midas I feel certain any resulting male fry would be fertile...I really don't hold out much hope that the current batch will have fertile males.
