The most probable way it was produced is to cross a Blue with a Gold... in which will produce all normal looking offspring that are Het for both Blue and Gold... or "Blue Gene" as well as "Gold Gene"...

Then these double het offspring are raised and bred together... yielding a wild mix of offspring with 6.25% likely being both Blue and Gold...

I would expect all the offspring from a Blue/Gold x Blue/Gold would die just like they do with Blue x Blue crossing...

But if we were to cross a Blue/Gold x Het Blue / Het Gold (or Blue Gene/Gold Gene) then we could expect 25% Blue/Gold (25% Blue Het Gold, 25% Gold Het Blue & 25% Double Hets).


That's alot of work to make these guys. They are sweet lookin though can't wait to see 1 full grown...:popcorn::popcorn::popcorn:
 
nice..
 
No more pics, this fish was killed by a green terror. I wish the breeder still produced them.
 
Anyoone know the genetics behind these guys? I have a gold JD trying to pair up with a Blue Gene JD.

You have to breed a male and a female that carry both the gold and blue gene. You will end up with like 6% of the spawn being the gold / blue cross. In simple terms.
