That sounds interesting!
Do I understand well and are even the black lines on its body reduced, but the spots still present? That seems quite unusual…Bartian, yes you do: the black lines are reduced but the black blotches are shown.
And, Helene, why should one try to breed with this fish? Well, in order to know about the dominant or recessive character of that feature. To say it clearly: I do not like any such variations as permanent inhabitants of our tanks (as there are many examples with other fish filling the tanks in the hobby stores). But we should know whether this is a single event in a single specimen or whether some sort of genetic hereditary disposition is slumbering in it. You may take it as a hidden danger.
It was Horst Linke who told me this should be tested by trying to breed with this fish. And I think he is right although nobody of us likes it.
Hello, few weeks ago I had a pleasure to meet Stefan and even purchase two species of Parosphromenus from Him (one more time thank You Peter for manage this meeting). One of them was P.linkei which already spawn in my aquarium (yesterday I saw few larvae in a filmbox cave). I have a plan to try intensive breeding method for one pair and I’m wondering that maybe such an “albino” specimen ( Stefan show me this female also) will appear also among my offspring..? During next weeks , I will add some pictures of my new parosphromenus because they are very beautifull and worth to show..:) Greetings!
