I think we have to stay away of introducing more pinto genes to the project. They have dominant genes and we might step back of what we are trying to achieve. I pull the red steels from that tank and let the rest breed more. The pintos that are showing up are really nice too. But they won't breed 100% pintos like the Nadal ones do. They've been tainted. lol! Vshrimp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plamski Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 They are definitely keepers. Who knows what they can throw back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenteam Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Sorry for algae covered glass & poor lighting. This is some of the other "accidents" I stumbled on while trying to make the steels. Wanted to try making the Blue Dragons and got this so far (2nd picture) last picture is just reference to what real Dragons look like. mayphly and Vshrimp 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vshrimp Posted March 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 Update: after waiting a few weeks for some of the shrimplets to mature. I decided to take a few pics of them. Here's a few pics of them as of now.My guess is they are Red Bolt phenotype since they are Tangtais. nuri, EricM and Maurice 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OblongShrimp Posted March 14, 2017 Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 Awesome looking shrimp! I wonder how many genes are involved in some of these colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vshrimp Posted May 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 This one has colored up alot. Looking more like a steel headAfter confirming with a few European breeders. They said this one is an actual Red Steel. So now the next goal is to reproduce them and make sure the genes are stable.
