More Controversial Jack...

They are two different strains, and the DNA would be the same.
Hybridization would be be between two different sp. w/ different DNA. Same DNA = same fish. It's like the difference between a person having blond or brown hair IMO.
I would like to also note that caprintis and Texas (cyano) are two different sp.

Ive always thought the ebjds with the snake skin patter resemble cubans.
This is a jd x cuban.
Heres the page that pic is from for more pics and a small amont of info:http://fishopolis.wordpress.com/2011/
I have a hard time with the argument against them being a hybrid. It is correct that first generation hybrid spawns result in fry with random expressions of the parrent fish's traits. This is not a f1 hybrid though. The ebjd traits have been refined into the strain since the late 1980s and with the constant breeding back to jd there will be more consistency yet as I mentioned in a previous post there is much variation with ebjd (even amongst siblings).

Heck NO, I love learning new stuff, even if I dont necessarily believe or trust it.
That Jack x Cuban is Awesome dude. My next plan is to breed a Powder or Electric Jack with another pearly Cichlid (possibly a Carpintis). So with the offsprings that would "carry the Blue Genes", I will cross back with another Powder or Electric. Maybe not all but at least some of the babies should look interesting.

^Sounds like a nice project. Jack x Carpinte are some nice looking fish I can only imagine how crazy it would look with ebjd crossed in as well.
Nope I stumbled upon it awhile ago. The author breeds a lot of the same stuff I breed or have interest in. I wish I could score some of those jack Cuban hybrids.
