The difference between the BSP imports 2014 vs 2016

[Babers]

I've read a lot of posts regarding the 2014 imports loosing colors, fry initially having dark fins and fades as they grow bigger, fish not healthy, bsp being hets and posts with "buyer beware". It was a barrier that needed to be broken. I've got a lot of inquiries but are hesitant about the fish...until they receive them and then are very happy with them. That's the only time they get convienced.

So I think here is the biggest difference why the 2014 imports are the way they are. Here's a quote word for word from another forum from the breeder, Raiko.

He said, "Unlike previous import (AngelfishUSA a year ago), all fish in Joel have dark gene. These fish are the original version of the BSP, which I have shown a few years ago in this forum. They are hybrid black version BSP angelfish. (not D/+ version). These angelfish have darker colored fins (like all hybrid black angelfish, which are darker than D/+ angelfish even without bg/bg gene)."

I saw that too....interesting.....I'm wondering what you'll get from a spawn...??

Yes, I would like see what they look like also, to see if there's a noticeable difference between Dena's results to mine. I do have the ability to make blushings, ghosts, and the siver pb/pb variant. We'll see....

I was able to compare fish with Dena. Her BSP from 2014 to mine. And there is obviously a difference. David noted that his imports started loosing colors when they were quarter to dollar in size. This is NOT the case on mine....
