Dixon1990 Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Is breeding GBA's to Albino BN's bad? I saw this on TM http://www.trademe.co.nz/Home-living/Pets-animals/Fish/Fish/auction-115506160.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 to a fish entusiast.. yes it is bad. not really a good thing to do as if you were later to sell the offspring as albinos and they mate with another albino, you might get common GBA. If I was the buyer I would be pissed. So yes bad thing to do. Unless it was the last albino in NZ and you wanted to same the species. But that is a lot of dedicated work.

coelacanth Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 One of the problems is that many people don't actually know that GBAs and bristlenoses are separate species. They think that both the GBA and the albino BN are just similar-looking mutations of the regular BN, or this is what they have been told by others or even in the shop from which they bought them.
