Thanks, you guys always seem to know more than Google! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fish addiction Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 No no no..... They are a tank bred morph that got line bred.... The 1st was just a 1 off out of a batch from standard fene parents..... I know this 100% because I know the guy who did it I was at his house this morning actually.... So no they are not a hybrid nor a natural morph in a lake....... They were 1st bred right here in brissy by a great bloke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yodapwnsasmurf Posted March 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Wow, that's awesome, so, does that mean we should be exporting them and getting them out into the world? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott95 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 im not to sure wether the queesnaldn legislation of importing exotic species of fish applies for the exporting. would be good to find out, but in effect yes, although i have not seen any outside of australia.
