Kenyi and Yellow Lab
« on: November 19, 2012, 10:36:56 AM »
Im wondering if it is genetically possible for these two fish to mate? Not that im trying to do this please don't think so. Someone here in Alpena has an add on C-list claiming to have babies for sale which is F-ed up anyway. But im wondering if its possible.

They look like hybrids to me. On the main fish the face shape is L. caeruleus and the rest of it is not. There's a fish in the background on the right with some black in the anal fin, but not enough for a L. caeruleus either. Of course there's a chance that some of the batch look more like a lab or a kenyii, though they aren't, which may lead someone else to confusion down the road and that is the main reason I hate hybrids.  >:(
