If I was to take a Cheery red zebra Male and mate it with a female ob peacok, is that a NO NO or is it considered Line Breed?
-
That would be a hybrid.
-
thats a line bred-hybred, i think your ok.
-
It actually just won't work. Even if they were to mate which I doubt there is no way the eggs would produce fry. Also line breeding is most often referred to when breeding a fish for certain characteristics. Ie. Long fins or runners certain colors or more vibrant colors.
-
One theory is that the OB Peacock was developed from an OB Red Zebra X Peacock mating. I think the eggs from the mix in question would be viable. Don't know what the purpose of the proposed mating would be though....more red in your peacocks?
-
I am asking only because I came across a peacock that was labeled a zebra peacock,and it was bright orange with the peacock pattern
-
Yeah it seems I am wrong I guess on peacocks can breed with mbuna at least the inter web says so. Still sounds horribly wrong.
-
Whats the point of it. Just to add more hybrids into the hobby? Only hybrid that matters is Blair's Tropheus Butkerfaria in the making.
-
YEA! Let's kick off the hybrid discussion again!
-
To funny!

What if and I'm just saying what if Rich's cherry red zebra said "look Rich I don't want me none of that other cherry red that's not my style I want me some blue fish or green yellow or even some chocolate fishes. I like some variety Rich and your holding me back" I mean the fish makes a valuable argument who are to deny his natural urges?????
I'm just saying it could have happened we weren't there 😂😂😭😭😭😭

tough crowd, that's why i posted it as a Question.

Every time a hybrids born, an Angel gets her wings. I think that's how it goes. You don't want to hurt the angels do you?
-
I don't get it^
-
every time a bell rings an angel gets her wings- its a wonderful life
-
It's a "No no".
-
It's a "No no".

It's a "No no".

Like Daniel said.... my Tropheus Butterfarkeria is the only hybrid project allowed. :P
-
I wonder how big it will get seagrest and A pet will be all over you for those.
-
No doubt they will. I'm hoping the Tropheus draws blood from the owl & the Butterfarkeria have feathers as a result.
-
And a beak.
