Hey,
about three month ago my biggest Cutteri-male:

and my colorful female HRP crossbred:

I am keeping 12 Cutteris with 4 HRP in 120x50 .
Although both could have a "partner" of their own species the two dominant fish decided to breed.

Those little guys are about 2-4cm and I set up a 200 litre tank for them in which they are growing very fast.

They´ve got the brow/yellow color of the Cutteri and the shining blue of the HRP (looks green in the picture :screwy: )


To see the different development I took one Hybrid to the 300 litre Cutteri/HRP-tank ,one Hybrid to the 450 litre tank with 1/1 Heros severus,1/1 Cryptoheros sajica,1 L90,1 Cochliodon Rio Paraguay ,3 Metynnis altidorsalis and my Myleus rubripinnis (moving to my 1400litre tank next year) and five Hbyrids to another 200 litre tank together with Pangio kuhlii and Puntius titteya.
 
Wow I was going to ask you to see if you were going to sell then noticed you were in Germany. I bet these are going to look spectacular. I have seen this mix once before and they looked great looks like HRP with flashy yellow fins.
 
Hey,
I am trying to make a new picture where the blue is visible and does not look like green.
But those little guys are very fast.
I did not breed them on purpose .I just did not expect that they would not chose a partner of their own species.
I guess I have to set up another tank (200-300lites ) too keep them because in Germany the philosophy about hybrids is kind of strict.
So there is no one who wants to keep hybrids.
But they are living creatures like every other animal or human so they´ve got the right to live as well.
 
I look forward to pics as they grow. You will have these coming out of your ears by the end of the year if you keep all of them.
 
Hey,
well I´ve got 11 tanks ,after moving I am able to get some more tanks .
So I could set up about 2 tanks (á 300 litres) for each 15 HRP x Cutteri if there is no other way.
