Jim- I most certainly was not trying to create a hybrid- it just happened with what I thought would be some dither fish. I would very much like to get some F1 fry from the Sacrimontis. After these little ones are no longer under parental care I will be pulling the female pulcher and hope that...
Hi guys, a quick update.
