any potential? so do i have some red devil with severum blood parrot and convict? line breeding? will these be more valuable as albino?? anything on this mix would be beneficial thanks.
 
they're shortbody cons, so you'll get more leucistic(not albino) shortbody cons as the offspring. more valuable than regular cons, but still relatively common.
 
I was always under the impression that Jellybeans are just Blood Parrots that have been dyed/tattooed. Are you talking about a different fish that goes by the same name... or I might be confused.

But, any cross between two different fish, such as you've got, is a hybrid.
 
Right... a Blood Parrot is a hybrid, and then the way they make it a "Jellybean" is to dye or tattoo it.
 
if by male convict, you mean standard balck convict, then depending on his particular gene pool and his genotypes, you will either have a full turnout of slightly shorter bodied black convicts, or a batch of mixed pink and black shorter bodied cons.
