Re-pairing two Turq HE's with some Ghost HE veils later..... ;D

My Turqs are a cross between a D/D Str/- V/+ Sire and Hb/Hb S/S dame. I think these are the guys you got through me.

Your turqs should be hybrids within the mix of four types that emerged.

Possible fish should be "german blue" type ( non Pb ) blush, Single dose D and double dose stripeless (turqs) D/D S/- Black blush and D/D S/S black velvets.

I have taken to line setting the Hb/- black velvets in super veil and chosen those with bronze and without.
I have done the same to the Hb/- D/D S/- V/+

The other fish that have complex genetics have some very interesting stuff going on as well. I am getting really magnificent looking fish from the partial and incomplete expressers, some real starter fish to get some jaw droppers going. You have those same hybrids as I do. And then I have some full expressers as well, but the partials throw several types that the fulls do not and so I keep them for the Pb/Pb A/A S/S G/- and cobalts.
I have 100 fish tanks, but two pairs of shoes. The latter is proof that I am still relatively sane. The question is...relative to what?

Not sure, ....the pair you named with those genetics won't throw Turq's...both parents need at least one stripeless and a 'D' gene to get any Turq's (D/+ S/S)..if they were from you, your male must have been D/d S/+ Str/+.....??? a DD ghost w/str....

Still looking ok....I popped a small single sponge in there this morning, after the water change.

Is it that mysterious third day die off we hear about?   Is there really such a phenomenon?
When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because those weirdos are your tribe.  (Sweatpants & Coffee)
