Going back to the punnet square you should see 16 fry (according to the ratio)with the homozygous aabb genes, with 2 degrees of freedom so ~14-18 out of every 100 fry should end up aabb

Now all this depends on if the parents are true breeding EBJD and true breeding Gold, if not then the punnet square can drastically change!!! Even one letter changing can cause 4 of the boxes to change.
 
I just moved them into my bare bottom 80 gallon tank, so they should start growing a little faster than when they were in the 40. I have had no loses so far.

I believe the ratio would give 6 out of every hundred fish, not 16. They are 1 in 16 fish theoretically.

:shakehead
Wow I screwed that up :duh: . Thanks for catching that, :hitting:

Theoretically you'd get 100% EBJD.

Yeah, it will be interesting to see if that combination works since you can't breed two EBJDs together. I already have a few spawns of golds with blue genes that I am raising up for breeding purposes as well.
