It is disturbing to think that in nature, due to outside influences that a species could/will produce very skewed sex ratios. Due to survival instincts and the drive to reproduce, it is quite possible to see “natural” hybridations also.
A possible example might be the new Ampah which is being sold as Filementosus and is more than likely being collected from the Filamentosus collection sites. It seems a little strange that this “species” just showed up and in large numbers. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying this happened, but it could with many species of Paros as their wild population decrease.
Just a thought here but disturbing, new species could be evolving with the ability to survive in the new man made enviroments.. we would notice this in changes to the fish with difficulty to identify.
I understand that in the natural enviroment hybrids rarely survive, but what is going on is not natural. I have seen this happen once where man has interfered.
Correction, maybe I should not use the word species, as much as different “forms” of a species.
