HYBRID BREEDING XPERIENCES?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i've had 100's of texas X Blackbelt
 
A friend of mine had a breeding pair of what he claimed, no, swore to be convict/oscar mix. He named the breed Ripper's! He had them for a couple years. I could definatly see the convict in them. But had trouble seeing the oscar in them. They were definatly crossed with something. Very cool looking. Also very large and extreamly agressive! They did however retain the convict's habbit to breed like rabbits.
Also I agree with the person that mentoned Flower horns. The are easy to breed extremly hardy and in my opinion on of the most stunning fish out there today! I am currently breeding three seperate pure strains of this fish. Nothing brings me greater joy! Good luck with the fire mouth deal, that would be something to see!

I have about 30 convict X green terror that a lady brought to me at work (at a pet store) that resulted from a 7"male green terror and a 4-1/2" female convict in a 30 gal. I have also seen ram (Microgeophagus Ramirezi) X angel fish (Pterophyllum Scalare) for sale.

I bet those were "balloon rams" you saw and not Pterophyllum var. x M. ramirezi. Balloon rams aren't hybrids, just ugly little genetic wonders like any balloon molly.
 
We have a convict/flowerhorn cross female breeding with a firemouth male.
