RSG and brillant

[Kaza]

I just discovered my male is a RSG and the mother is a brillant. What or who will the babies take after???? At the moment they are 10 weeks and just bronze colour with bars.

Hmmm good question Kaza. I have no idea.

I would think that you will see the red dots from the RSG in some of the fry, but as for the base colour. Not really sure. Could be a good looking cross though.

Leanne yours according to Simon at LFS is a Brilliant Turq.
Not sure if you remember about a year and a half ago in that display tank at the front he had only red Turqs bout 6 and bout 6 Brill turq with a school of Frontozas. Quit a sight , your Brill Turq was in there.

Leanne Breaking and entering!!!!
you know looking at her I think she is a red turk? the babies are 2 weeks old today and have started to eat live blackworms. Looks funny when they fight over the same worm.

Well you were probably lucky I wasnt a fish napper as the roller door was left all the way up I could of scored myself 2 pairs and lots of babies come to think of it I should of taken the lot and held them to ransom :twisted: Ha Ha
Let me know when your home next week as I'll come and take photos of the ones inside as well

hi all, could it be possiable that the female is a brown discus. the black in the fins seem to be common in browns.

I think you may be on to something Cameron, Karen did mention that the other day as well.

Leanne

Good pick Cameron. Maybe a cross between a brown and a turquoise?

That black in the fins is very distinctive.

Beautiful looking family Karen. Love to see some more photos.
