So if I ever breed 2 hybrids, will it work out? And basically which pattern will be evident?
Example

Marbled Motorox Henlei X Henleixleo... Just askin, Cause I'm planning to have 2 hybrids as my first rays... Don't worry tho, I've done my assignment on research and all, it's just I wanna be prepared as I upgrade my hobby, stingray paradise. :headbang2
 
It's a crap shoot with that much genetics mixed. One litter could all look fairly different or all very similar.
It will work fine but may not make a very nice looking ray

Thanks for answering tho, it's just that I'm really trying out ways... if genetics will be not so stable, then, what if it's a hybrid to a pure one?
(not to intervene with what's natural/ethical way of breeding)
 
my hybrids have produced about 4 distinct different patterns. like said its a crap shoot. really depends on what kind of look you are going for. might be able to achieve it with mixing 2 pures. of course one of my favorites are leoxpearl or leo/pearl x leo
 
Seems like motoro has a strong genetic hold in hybrids. You could cross two motoro hybrids and most likely have a baby that looks pure motoro. As with jeffers it was almost like he had a handful of pure bred rays pop out and his pair has no telling how many blood lines
