shadoh Posted August 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Thanks! So many amazing looking fish being unpacked today. We really timed it right :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_95 Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 I have a girl I think would suit the VT, she's a yellow dragon, if you bred him to a black dragon you would loose the yellow. Its the female I paired with Cadbury, She is no longer brown at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadoh Posted August 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Thanks for the offer Matt, but I have a nice new yellow dragon girl to use if I want to go down that track. I'm not 100% convinced I'll lose the yellow with a black dragon. The black dragons throw red, so I'll probably get silver/red/white marbled dragons first generation with yellow popping up in the next generation. OR I might just get crazy and put him with a Jewel Box girl and see what crazy combos I'll get :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_95 Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Yellow is non red right? which is recessive so you will get yellow in F1. If you bred them with the jewel box spawn wouldn't you loose the yellow all together as they are red loss geno? Thats just my understanding off it, my little tiny bit of understanding More for my benefit knowing that making sure I understand this properly.

shadoh Posted August 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Yellow is non red and recessive, so you are right there If spawned to red, you will only get red. Yellow shows up in the second generation as both fish (if from same spawn) will be carrying the recessive non red gene. As the dragons carry a red gene, when combined with the yellow non red, I should only get red showing up in the marble pattern. The second generation will show yellow, as the siblings will both carry non red... OK, I just confused myself. I hope I made sense :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_95 Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 ah, I had it right then Well thats what I was thinking in my head, I don't think what I wrote made any sense lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadoh Posted August 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Oh, as for the Jewels, I would imagine I would get red (which would then disappear on most fish), but not see yellow till F1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrefly Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Huge fun today fellas (And mystery lady who owes us PICTURES ) Muchly welcome for the 'weed' Busman Paul, certainly did feel like christmas by the time I'd left Jarrod's place! Didnt get any fish from someone's, everything I was drawn to was spoken for but not too dissapointed. I have enough to try and spawn Huge thanks to everyone for showing up and making a great day of it, and someone for the time taken out of her day Very excited about next moves, guys, so much more to learn.

shadoh Posted August 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 (edited) Hey Sarah, did you guys end up going to the other aquarium shop? Hope the state of their bettas didn't traumatize you. Edited August 20, 2011 by shadoh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrefly Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 I did find it very easily, thanks for the directions. I swear it was in much better shape last time I blundered across it. Was a bit of a shock after Fishchicks Did enjoy playing with their giant gourami though. Didnt buy anything, but good for a browse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishchick Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 (edited) useful info for setting up and running an incorporated club. friendsofopendocument.com/docs/assoc-guide.pdf (cut and paste into the browser address bar) will check with QFAS to see if they still have a copy of the club's constitution. If not, will see if we can borrow one to "plug & play" Cheers, someone Edited August 24, 2011 by Fishchick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
