Disgusted with my HB's

[LizStreithorst]

I have separated several new pairs.  The morons refuse to parent raise, and y'all know how I am about parent raising.  I think that it's because they are so inbred.  I can ship nothing until after a week after Jan 1st but I think that then I'll list these egg eaters on Aquabid for cheap.  Unless they do me right I will concentrate on my Zebra HB/Blue Silver crosses.  It won't be the first time I've started from scratch.

......raise a spawn or two.....it's not that bad....really...

+1  Not bad. Back in the day, I raised thousands of them that way.

I know, gentlemen.  I've done it before but I get no joy from it.  I have a Blue silver and a Blue marble pearls scale that are parent rising now.  They're good fish.  They have raised good fry for me in the past. They will keep me occupied.

I choose to put my heart into making Blue HB's.  They are a total out cross from what I have that is so inbred.  I have faith that they can do it the normal way.  Besides, I sold my best pair to Damon who also wants to cross to his blue zebras.  He has promised to sell me fry.  I follow my heart, you know.....

He should give you the fry.

I don't know about that, Mug.  I told him to go screw himself the first time he tried to buy for me.  (not is those words.  It was his choice to not buy when I laid down the law).  I don't mind spending money on good fish.  All I want from him is a chance to buy good fish.  His Blue Zebras are gorgeous...better than mine.  I think he said t hat they carry the dark gene.  I don't know genetics.  All I know is that he sent me a pic of them and it made me salivate

+1. I never sell fry to the person I got the parents from. If they need fry I am happy to share what I have with them. Liz if I ever get a spawn from those Plat PS you are welcome to all the fry you need.

You're a sweetheart, Willie.  I'm pretty much off Plats.  I think that I have some from a spawn from a blue marble and a blue clown.  I don't even know if that is possible because I don't speak Greek.

It's possible if they both have a hidden gold gene since they both have an obvious blue gene. Jon will correct me if I'm wrong. lol

[LizStreithorst]

That's what I learned when I looked it up in Greek.  I see the fish.  It said that it could be so.  They sure look like Plats to me.  They're pretty.
