I'm getting a fertile KKP female that i plan on breeding with my male carpintis. what should i breed the of spring to. ether a red devil or a mides.
 
I got my hands on a nice colored female Midas. so i think i will breed my male carpintis with the Midas.then find the nicest male out of that spawning and breed it with the female kkp. what do you all think the out cum of that would be?

probably better than your original plan. Just sit down and think of what kind of fish you want to produce. I would personally rather crossbreed 2 different flowerhorn strains to come up with something new or a flowerhorn X purebred fish. All (well most) of the purebred species have already been crossbred. I'd rather make something nobody else has.
 
pick out the best fry and cull the rest. from there pick out a few males breed them with the female kkp untill you find a fertile one then you will get some very nice fry if you breed the kkp x carpintis babys with a mias they will not look good.
