wow, would love to see these what these guys would look like but yes def make sure to use most as feeders and any you do keep dont breed with anything else and Loves Severums I hope you are being facetious because its mixes like these going into the trade that make it so difficult to find a pure fish at a lfs nowadays especially when someone isnt experienced to tell the difference and thinks he has a pure fish which he then breeds and the cycle continues

I'm positive it's a Mayan, the ocellus is different.
Cool! Can't wait for pics, I keep these two types of fish as well!
so i wake up this morning and all the fry are gone! idk who did it, but my female salvini is all torn up. not sure if the pleco, mayan, or rainbow shark got to the eggs. really sucks, not sure if they will mate again or not at this point.

Keep your negativity to yourself,everyone has their opinion.Also,if you can't find a purebred of a certain kind of fish then quit shopping at petsmart.Man,some of you people who always argue and hate on others need to get a life!
I love hybrids.. I don't see why you would want to cull them all.. flowerhorns are hybrids you know and they are more interesting to look at gthe 99% of pure breds..

That last thing we need is every hobbyist to play God and make random genetic crosses. Have you ever seen a low grade flowerhorn? That would probably be a similar result if everyone attempted to make hybrids. So many of the flowerhorn produced by breeders are culled because of their lack of color and are just overall ugly. I'm fine with hybrids as long as the breeder is responsible and doesn't sell the fish to the public. There is no need for abominations to all over the market. Just my opinion.
