What do you think the percentage of fader fry would be if you bred a fader flowerhorn and a blood parrot? I think i have some wrigglers from the two of them. thinking the % should be high for faders with both parents being faders.

Thanks,
Brian
 
Well a blood parrot isn't classified as a fader, but they can create faders in their offspring. When breeding a fader with a blood parrot you can definitely get a higher percentage of fader offspring. I believe 20-50% of the offspring can be classified as faders but I don't have any personal experience with this genetic trait.
