RD. Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 He has a min order of 2K US. Let me know when you're ready to order. He's also responsible for developing approx 25 strains of albino fish. He's obviously not a purist when it comes to African species, he breeds them as a business. He told me that even though some of these strains took over 10 years to develop to the point that they are 99% pure, in the end they are all developed from cross breeding. If in fact he alone developed 25 albino strains, how may more albino African strains does that leave? Just so there's no confusion, I have no problem if people want to keep OB Peacocks, or albino strains, that's up to each individual to decide. My post here was simply a FYI. BTW - here's a past thread on another forum that covers this subject in more detail. http://www.riftcichlidforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=810 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freshmike Posted August 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Well, thank you for taking the time to share what you know about them, as I have also looked for them on the net and such, all I have come up with are white ones with black eyes...they are very beautiful fish...and although mine probably are not pure either, I am sure there are enough people out there that will be interested in them that I can spread them around. They are not like the perlmutt/caeruleus hybrids that I have to keep within my family, thankfully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vallisneria Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 I know, just didn't want Freshmike's thread to be hijacked and turned into a thread about hybrids and how they are evil. Carry on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
