I'm pretty new to hybrids, honestly I've spent most of my aquarist "career" dismissing them as goofy but the blue diamonds/thai silk/Titaniums that I've seen have sort of blown my mind, it's kind of weird not having a latin name for a fish I'm interested in, and I'm a little confused by these three names for what appear to be the same strain, maybe someone better informed could fill me in on the nomenclature here?
 
Hybrids do not get Latin names. I am not 100% sure, but I think they are all different names, for the same fish. I was wondering the same thing.
 
Mostly these fish are the same.. the names are just given by the breeder/seller.

So Thai Silk and Titanium are the same fish.
Blue Diamond..that one, I've never heard before.
But there is a Blue Dragon ZZ.. Which is the same as
a Red Dragon ZZ, except the Blue Dragon has more pearls and
not as red.

Hope this helps.
 
Thank you for the clarification.

I kind of figured that based on the one "blue diamond" I've seen in person compared to pictures of the "silk"/"titanium" fish I've seen pictures of.
