I sold this fish to "MBUNAFISHKEEPER"
The "GOLD" Jags are something eles, The Xanthic Jag is a very rare colour morph, IF there are any more I would like to see it with my own eyes ! .lol...
I got him from a lady off of a free adds site, add read something like "A FULLY MATURED FEMALE JAG AS SHE HAS NOW GOT HER FULL ADULT YELLOW COLOUR", but its a male and no Jag has colour like this norm.
I bred this fish to see if I could get any more Xanthics...... all the fry come out normal, also I tryed breeding his offspring to offspring but that was a no go as well.

The F2 generation (offspring X offspring) should have had a 25% rate of xanthism.
The P generation would be AA (normal) X aa (xanthic) which would yeild 100% Aa heterozygous (all would look normal but carry the recessive trait). Cross Aa with Aa and you'll get 3/4 with a normal phenotype (AA, Aa, and Aa) and 1/4th would be xanthic (aa).
What did you notice when you bred the offspring?
