you guys who bred fh x texas opened my eyes. In the begining I was wondering how one would look like and was thinking of breeding em to see. You guys did it for me. Im glad I didn't put time and effort into that thought. It would have been a waste of time big time..
Decent looker but no quality. Bet you personality is really cool and active like the texas. If you breed it with that red fish, you'll surely have something beautiful.

rallysman;907589; said:yea, but we're not FH snobsI like their personality and looks and don't really give 2 peanut decorated ****s about quality (who decides what quality is in a hybrid, anyway?)
Well, quality is looks.
I like personalities too but they all have em.
I got into the quality crap when I joined the FH addicts. Now it's just with me. And that's one of the bad thing about the hobby to be honest.
No one should decide. It's one's opinion. But when a fish is far more beautiful than others, you judge that yourself.
But in the FH hobby. PPL use things such as color, pearls fins, structure, and the big head.
Quality is in the blood line or gene of a fish.. Just because it carries quality genes, don't mean it looks good. I have liked a lower quality fish over a higher quality like you said. Because the way of the fish is just better. How the patterns and colors apply on the fish means lots to me.
But when you wanna talk about quality, you just gotta see different ones to know and compare them.. Use a pure breed for example. Some pure breeds of the same kind are just better than others. If you just happen to like a lower quality one, then you just do. It's your taste. It's like telling a new car and a old car. If you like old rusty cars then you just do. Just the world knows the new car is better that's all.

lol I like it better that way too. I personally think this fish looks awesome. But my lack of photography skills do not help at all 
FH's are cool but I agree with Rally the whole system of grading and crap almost ruins it for me.
