actually come to think of it i'm not sure what your point is still.

+1 and to be honest he doesn't have one. My statement never said anything about using a rd or a midas. Most people know what rt's can be made from to where I don't feel the need to elaborate. We don't get on here posting whatever like that, so OP you can go with Source or you can listen to us that have actually bred them.
 
okay im just asking question. idk why u guys are targetting each other i just wanted to know what i had that all.

That's understood and we are trying to help as well. He had no reason to say what he said. All he should have said was his opinion of what the fish was. What he said was simply false and that's why something else had to be said. No worries though... Your fish is a rt IMO and I'll leave it at that.
 
When you're trying to make rt, some of the low grades end up looking like the parents, hence a low grade pearly kamfa as we see in the op's fish

Since you are breeding RT You should know that its a mix between kamfa and texas. I don't know why you guys are breeding texas with red devils and parrots. A true red texas should be sterile jst like when bps are made.

This response we all can run with. I wasnt saying your first comment was 100% false. With it being a hybrid we all are taking educated guesses of the origin. I was just saying most that breed rt do use devil, midas, or parrot AND there's nothing wrong with fertile rt. As far as the identification on this hybrid... I believe you are right. Here is a picture of the one I thought it looked like.

The flower line on my fish(let me say this for all my bp/carpintis crosses) stops shorter than yours so if I had to take a final guess, I would agree its origin has kamfa within it. I apologize for the confusion OP and Source310.
