They are a mutation that IS found in the wild.....they just dont live long past wigglers due to lack of camouflage, and are generally weaker genetically. Albinos are natually found in the wild but don't live long either.

No blue morphs have EVER been seen, or collected, from the wild ......

Anyone looking to debate this subject, please see previous link.

No...as i said previously by the time the electric blue jack could be IDENTIFIED in the wild due to its colouration and lack of camouflage it would be eaten......Another fish is going to see it long before a human being will see it.

Then obviously one cannot state with 100% certainty that this color morph is; "a mutation that IS found in the wild". lol

If you have something more concrete to add to the following discussion, please do.

If not, please don't make statements as though they are factual, because for the most part all anyone has regarding this topic is opinions. I kept this color morph many years ago when it was new to the hobby in North America, and I know the story (and all the arguments from both sides) very well. Thanks
