thai Red dragon? How does that look likes first.. haha sorry i have never seen one yet. I know one thing for sure your going to have a mix of kamfa and Tan King also short body mix

FALSE. Tan King is a line bred of Vietnam Kamfa, has nothing to do with Thai RD breeding with a BP. And I will tell you this, Tan King is not a strong and steady flowerhorn strain...
Anyways, if you breed a RD into your BP. It may throw out some Kamfa, but it may not be what you wanted if your into colors and pearls. The pearls will most likely be less than what your Red Dragon has as of now, and if lucky it will throw it back out as a recessive gene. The color may not be as vibrant as before, but the BP will work on those fins, turn your RD body into a Kamfa body(if the genes comes out correctly), with white/yellow eyes and if possible...baby kamfa face. At this point, it can be anything. Try it and experience for yourself...;)
 
There is no fact to this cross on how it will look it is chance and theory. You should get some F1 kamfa but It will vary greatly. It's pretty much a crap shoot. Most likely about 60%-80%(theory) will suck and a few will be just okay. You could also get some nice ones though. No one on here will be able to tell you if they will look good because it basically comes down to genetics and chance. I am working on the same thing right now but only with a titanium x red dragon male and kkp female
 
when he gets bigger i have a RD female and a no pearl kamfa made from ZZ x parrot(she has full double flower line)
 
the eggs are fertile!!! every single one of them in the clay thing. im expecting 200 to make it. its his 1st time with a female well is 1st time with any fish for more than
20 min. shes abour 4.5-5" with tail.
