Breeding red texas

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i wonder why fade? after red parrots faded, they look orange. if red texas fade, it will turn orange-ish instead of red?

Mike is on the right page bro... FishRoomPlus is just talking nonsense... Female kkp to male carpintis or esco... take most red male back to the kkp mom and you will line breed from there to achieve the best % of nice frys...
If soo easy, the srt would be worth $20, not $200-$400. since its 1000:1 that you might get one that is red. The prices are high and the breeding projects are a bust:cry:
 
i like red color, its very nice already. i love it more than super red. some super red might have been injected pigments like parrots did.

I never said it was a simple process bud... Mike is correct in how they r bred tho... You will only get 1 or 2 SRT and if lucky maybe 10 RT and the rest are culls...
 
first breed 2 super red? wow thanks i can't wait. i think i found a buyer for my wolf fish hehe.
 
ok kids.......heres there deal.
you breed your nice pearled out great body with good fins texan to a RED female and thats it.....

the rest is selective breeding/breeding back that takes forever.
as stated its almost 1 out of ALOT of fry that you MIGHT get some good fader genes,but not the body or color even your looking for.

iv bred them for years and most the time your NOT going to get a 1st gen as nice as the one posted.

but again you have to be super patient.
