I sold my 15" male Bifa and now the female Bifa (Rio Chacamax) paired up with the "Pink" Bifa. Would you save fry or just let them get eaten? They're in my 360 g community tank.

I would like to hear your opinion with regards to breeding different variants of let's say in this case Bifasciatus. My opinion is to let them breed but not save the fry.

What ever you decide to do.... save me a few when they reach the 1" mark!

Would be interesting to see what they'll look like!

If they were my fish I'd save at least a few to see how they turn out.

They look good together huh :D.
 
well, if they are both Bifasciatus it isnt a hybrid so it really doesnt matter, it is no different then crossing an Electric Blue Dempsey to a normal Dempsey or a Pink con to a black con am i wrong?
 
I would save them might look cool i don't think its a big deal there is some problem with the hole hybrid thing in Vieja/paratheraps but there the same species just different varients i don't see much of a problem i would buy one or two to see what they turn out like

They Both look great by the way this is the main reason why i would wan't one
 
This is what I've gathered so far.

1 member said do what I want. I know what I’m going to do. The title is misleading but my purpose was to know what members think about breeding different variants of the same species.
