New project trying to breed a Jag Texas hybrid

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Someone is quite upset lol. I have seen carpintis jag hybrids before with body of jaguar and smaller carpintis speckling. Didn’t look the best tbh but I’m sure all that would depend on the parents.
Yeah I’ve seen quite a few variations, I’ve seen a few nice ones that almost resemble a blue jag but you never know might be a couple stunners , I’ve seen the thread a few times I’ve noticed the female is usually the jag for some reason
 
I was just browsing the new threads. You are part of the reason i don't buy fish from my LFS anybody looking to make a buck selling hybrid fish. But more power to you good luck with your frakenfish i will stay with my purism
Troublesum… Funny I remember you saying you previously bred hybrids yourself for quite a while or maybe I’m remembering wrong (former Flowerhorn breeder?). If you’re such a purist now then keep it out of the hybrid section. There’s a hybrid section for a reason. Nobody in here cares that’s you don’t like hybrids but do care that the info you spread in the hybrid section you are so against, is mid at best if not misinformation. My mother would tell you If you don’t have anything good to say then better to not say anything at all.

Why would you want to create Hybrids? The gene pool of most of our favorite fish have been bastardized especially now that COTA & TUIC are gone are you going to sell them??? (Big Mistake) are you going to breed them to see if you can? and if they do produce fry what is going to happen to to 200-500 fry?
feed to other fish? You know there are always those 1 or 2 fry that survive then what?
IMHO bad idea
Because this the freaking hybrid section. We like hybrids. Of course we want too create them!

Sure. But don’t think that gives you merit to bastardize the quality of information this hybrid forum receives. The more well informed, everybody is, the better. If your not really in it then don’t post in it. Browse all you want…

Idk what the other guy was on but I’m very interested in this! I believe they’re both Central America which are easier to hybridize? How big of a tank for them to breed? Good luck!

I’m assuming it shouldn’t be too hard considering there both Central American cichlids, I’m hoping I can have them put up naturally if I get them together at a young enough age or I might have to try when there abit older through a divider. I’m planning on doing this in a 110 gallon, I’ll set up many little hiding spots so they feel at home but I assume it won’t be til they get in the 4-6 inch range that they’ll attempt breeding

Sounds great I’ll be watching
