My haitiensis is pairing up with my Texas lol will this work?

[ccichc]

I have a very young male haitiensis who’s pairing up with a Texas (I hope the Texas is a girl) and they’re sooo small. The haitiensis is probably 2.5-3 inches and Texas is the same… had no idea they could mate at these sizes.

are there any haitiensis hybrids out there? Will the fry make it?

I have kept black nasties sold a 10in male for $200. I don't think they can breed as they come from different waters and are different species is the Texas a Red Texas? if so i don't know about breeding with a hybrids
But I'm sure some one with more experience breeding hybrids will chime in

It says here that you won't be able to get hybrids. https://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/...of-hybridization-in-american-cichlids.475431/
However, if this picture is true, then offspring is possible. Nandopsis haitiensis X Blood Parrot

This is a true picture. I’ve also seen Haitiensis x Vieja hybrid, x Cuban, and x rainbow.
