Re: Rearing Picasso Percula Clownfish!

If you are getting them for future breeding stock, yes, you should pair them up with fresh percula genes.
However, many/most buyers simply want two gorgeous clownfish

Re: Rearing Picasso Percula Clownfish!

What would happen if you did raise fry from siblings?

Re: Rearing Picasso Percula Clownfish!

i saw that you said if you wanted to breed your stock that we would have to breed to a fresh percula gene? does it have to be another picasso or can it be a regular true?

I think after a few generations, weak fry, massive deformaties, etc. would appear. For more information about geneology type issues, please post your question on MOFIB forums: http://www.marinebreeder.org/phpbb/
