Came home from work to lots of pot cleaning and dancing going on with these two. Hope they get it done soon ;)

Didn't want to bug them with too many pictures and I used flash so ebjd looks like its golden.
I will update if they lay down any eggs.
 
SWEET! I finally found some young ones, so ....! Is your normal split blue?
She's a regular jack. Lots of color, great body shape, and transparent red fins. I have been waiting for some activity from this pair for a while lol. I've got one male and female het blue I got from another breeder that I've been growing so if these two spawn I will breed one of their female offspring to the male bgjd and this ebjd with the female bgjd, I figure that will give me a pretty clear picture of what is going on and what gives the best results as far as breeding ebjd x bgjd or two bgjd. I won't mention my other blues from breeders and the 1 I got from the lfs that I intend on crossing out with the fry from these spawns if all goes well.;)
 
If you can catalog all of that, and post your fry counts we can get a pretty good idea of what's going on!
Yep that was my intention and goal as far as my breeding ambition. I would also like to see what pairing yields best results (bgjd x ebjd or bgjd x bgjd) with the fry from both combos growing out side by side. I also plan on growing out any ebjd I breed to see if they develope into quality adult fish. I had ended up with so many bad ebjd from breeders because I bought fish 1" or less.
 
Just to make things difficult for you; egg counts may also be critical! If hatch rates are considerably higher from normals under similar conditions, we learn something. Especially if the fail numbers are close to 25% or 6%.
