Fish not sharing genes?

[crush329]

hybrids is spawning two fish of waay different genus, cross breeding is spawning fish in the same genus for better looks or what ever they want to cross breed for.

Oh ok. Thank you for that!

I beg to differ Doug. Cross breeding, interbreeding, and hybridization can all mean the same the same thing.

For starters majority of South American Cichlids are incapable of hybridizing outside their genus. Central American Cichlids on the other hand should be able to hybridize among themselves.

I have never seen or heard of an Argentea hybrid but I know its possible.

Aye, crossbreeding, hybriding and interbreeding can all mean the same thing. They can be used interchangeably.

Ok, so for now we have two. Green Terror and Argentea

Never seen Caquetaia (spelling?) sp. hybrids. Like umbee x Kraussii.

Crush329 - did you not see this one? I have not seen any Umbi or other Caquetia hybrids.

Oh Im sorry. Yes I seen the post and forgot to respond. But yes we can count them too!

Green Terror has been successfully crossed with Blue Acaras many times. Being that they are in the same genus it makes sense.

Ok, as we continue we will get corrected. So Green Terror is off the list. Thanks

Well in genetics (for which I'm partial to, being a geneticist and all), a hybrid is simply an offspring of two or more individuals that combines different genetic elements. So you're a hybrid of your mother and father.

Hmm, how much different are the genetics of a Red Devil and a Midas? The Bonobo Chimp is somewhere like 95+% similar to Humans. Who here is willing to try for a Monkey Boy?

Well, you could mark Argentea off the list too. I have not seen one, but like Chris said I can bet it very possible...after all, the "horny" ex-Viejas can hybridize with most anything.

I had a Kamfa patterned a lot like an Umbee, but who knows.

Lol @ your monkey boy statement. Hey it's 2013... I'm sure it's been thought of or even tried and locked up in some laboratory somewhere. But who knows... well someone does! Lol
