Crossing fire red

Hi, first post here, and I’m wondering if anyone has the experience that could help answer my question. I have a male double red Agassizii who’s paired up with two female fire red. They haven’t spawned successfully yet. I was wondering if they do, are there any potential issues with this combination that I should look out for? My money would be on some plain looking fry, which is ok with me, I just wondered with pure bred lines will I end up with something akin to a pug bulldog cross?

Both Fire-red and Double-red are already domestic cross-bred strains of several species within the agassizii-superspecies. Mixing will just get some interesting color forms.

Thanks! I’ll have to do some digging into the line history for both. I’ll post some updates if I’m successful.
