Whats next?

I just read this in a newsletter from Practical Fishkeepers.

Taiwan's Council of Agriculture unveiled last week that it has successfully bred transgenic Convict cichlids (Amatitlania nigrofasciata) and Angelfish (Pterophyllum scalare) that fluoresce, in collaboration with the Academia Sinica (Taiwan's national research academy).


What do you guys think off this?

Without even seeing any of them yet,it does'nt sound like anything I'd be too impressed with,just like the painted glass fish and the parrot and flowerhorn hybrid fishes.

Honestly.... I'm not in to fluorescent fish, so all i think about it is its just another type of fish that will have impure blood lines in just a short while.
