I was planning on buying a pair of marble convicts this weekend, I saw them today and thought they looked pretty sweet. If I bred a marbled with a black what would it be? How about a pink with a black and a pink with a marbled? They are compatible with each other right? I probably sound like a newb but I've only kept black convicts. Thanks
 
I just bred to norms and got Albinos!! '

but.. I just fed the male to my cichla..

They are compatable....Breed the fry back to opposite parents, and see what happens:naughty:
 
If I knew how to make a marble, I would!....I bet Modestman knows...

I have kept almost every type of convict and HRP. I have never seen an albino convict though just Regs, Pink ,Marbled ,Red tail and Blue. As far as HRP they come in Gold, Blue, Platnum, and Respectocon.

I have never really cared much for the marbled type but I do know that whatever 2 you start with you usually get a 50/50 split on the babies and if that doesn't get you the desired results you can cross back to the parent with the desired traits.

Good luck!

If anyone has albino's lets see them.:D

It is said that if you breed a marbled convict to a pink convict with black convict gene, you get marbled convicts with more black marbling. Not sure how accurate this is though.
